i still can't set the baudrate on my multiport card..
(tryed Jukka Martin's patch) 9600 goes ok any higher means
garbadge on the modem.

So i think maybe recompiling the kernel and reconfiguring
the card can help, not using it as single comms but as
the AST card. (the manufacturer points to the FreeBSD FAQ
on how to use the card)

the config shows:
ast0    at isa? port 0x1a0 irq 5    # AST 4-port serial cards
com*    at ast? slave ?

is that anough or do i have to extend f.i. like:

ast0    at isa? port 0x1a0 irq 5    # AST 4-port serial cards
com0    at ast0 slave 0
com1    at ast0 slave 1
com2    at ast0 slave 2
com3    at ast0 slave 3

btw: the card is a byterunner card, anyone any experience
     under NetBSD with it??

thanx much,
