A quick follow-up on this bug. I have been able to partially resolve this issue by forcing the 8250_pnp module to load at boot. Initially that module did not load by default.
However, the first time the module loads, the UART settings for the ttyS* ports are listed as "unknown". This prevents the ports from being used. If I manually remove the 8250_pnp module and load it a second time, the UART is correctly set and the ports become available. It does not matter if the module is initially loaded at boot time or manually loaded after boot, you must load the module, unload it, and load it a second time to properly set the ttyS* ports. I will keep working on this and pass on what I find, but I would appreciate any thoughts or ideas people may have. -- Bill Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
