Oh well. I would need to look into this much further, I hope someone with current experiance can chime in. Have you recompiled the kernel to allow it to see your additional ports (see link)? : http://www.support.lavalink.com/index.php?id=471 I am suspicious that you have since I see this from your lspci: 0e:01.0 Serial controller: Lava Computer mfg Inc Lava Octo A (rev 03) (prog-if 02 [16550]) Subsystem: Lava Computer mfg Inc Lava Octo A Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 16 I/O ports at 4418 [size=8] I/O ports at 4410 [size=8] I/O ports at 4408 [size=8] I/O ports at 4400 [size=8] Kernel driver in use: serial 0e:01.1 Serial controller: Lava Computer mfg Inc Lava Octo B (rev 03) (prog-if 02 [16550]) Subsystem: Lava Computer mfg Inc Lava Octo B Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 16 I/O ports at 4438 [size=8] I/O ports at 4430 [size=8] I/O ports at 4428 [size=8] I/O ports at 4420 [size=8] Kernel driver in use: serial And I assume you have placed the small script in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local as suggested in the above article. If I were you I would look into how to move the interrupt used and perhaps spread them out a bit (use differant interrupts for each of the two ports). Good Hunting!
