Hi
 Ok, made a lot of progress with the serial ports. I am now able to run a
getty off the tty0 port and that port seems to work perfectly, but not the
tty00 ports (DCM)

 I can connect using tty00 via cu to my alpha running a getty however, and
i get this

ptrap: bad kernel read access at 0xaa
trap type 8,code 0x525, v = 0xaa
kernel program counter = 0xca3ca
kernel: MMU fault trap
pid = -1 , pc = 000CA3CA, ps = 2304, sfc = 1, dfc = 1

lots of numbers deleted

I have tried this with either just one or both of my DCM cards installed,
always the same thing.

Should i send-pr this?
