I've got an unofficial install-disk set for slink, with version 5.1.12 of the aic7xxx driver... slightly newer than the version in slink's diskset. It's at "http://www.debian.org/~adric/aic7xxx/slink/";. If that doesn't work, and you know of a particular version of the driver (or Debian install-d

The future has arrived. I didn't wait long enough. I turned my back, and sure enough the serial ports were back on auto and I couldn't connect. It wasn't different versions of setserial as I had thought. Anyway, Brandon, your solution of adding "serial" to /etc/modules appears to have worked.

Hi, John That was a stock 0setserial, just with the change to irq3 as I mentioned before. When I updated packages from slink, setserial (_2.14-3) was one that I upgraded to. So I reverted to the hamm setserial (_2.12-6) and now the change to irq3 stays permanent. I didn't upgrade the kernel, I'm
