Hello,
I am using FreeBSD 2.0 release and have some trouble using the motherboard
ASUS P/I-P55TP4N on-board serial lines.
Using it at 57600 baud with modem (UUCP) results in massive checksum
errors by FIFO overflows (> 100) while using a serial mouse works ok.
This happens at both lines and disabling one and using a ISA serial card
at same IRQ, same IO address with same cabel works ok.
Is this an incompatibility sio driver - motherboard chip ?
