I hope for you that this is the same problem I had (if so, then I already have a fix). >Known problem with the onboard multi-IO chip. Check out the >mail archives (somewhere on www.freebsd.org I assume) for a >fix to the sio.c device driver I've mailed a fix for this problem to the hackers list some time ago, I should still have this email somewhere at home. If you want to have this email, please send an email to my home address (rene@freeze.iaf.nl). The on-board sio can't handle incomming data when the baudrate is set. T-UUCP sets the baudrate for almost any byte it sends, so nothing (or almost nothing) is received and T-UUCP fails. The fix was very simple, just check if the baudrate were going to set is the same as the current baudrate, if so don't set it, if not set it (and some data can still be lost). My private uucp link is now working with this patch installed and I didn't have any more problems with the sio driver. >Wilko Rene -- --- _ _ _ __ _ |- |_| |- |- / |- Rene de Vries revr@cadre.nl | |\ |_ |_ /_ |_ Cayenne Software Inc., European Operations, PD, Delft, NL
