No, I've got no clue about the reason either. Maybe it lies about its port bases somehow, so decodes impoperly. I wonder what Windows says about the resultant port bases.

When it's plugged in it is identified as: dump_cis: Socket 0: dev_info no_info funcid network_adapter lan_technology ARCnet vers_1 4.1, "Silicom Ltd.", "Double Serial Card", "2S100 1.00020702" config base 0x03f8 mask 0x0003 last_index 0x01 cftable_entry 0x01 [default] [mwait] Vcc Vnom 5V Iavg 70mA timing wait 1500ns io 0x0000-0x000f [lines=4] [16bit] irq mask 0x9eb8 [level] manfid 0x0089, 0x0301 Showing /var/log/messages: Sep 23 14:03:35 laptop2 kernel: ttyS4 at I/O 0x100 (irq = 3) is a 16550A Sep 23 14:03:35 laptop2 kernel: ttyS5 at I/O 0x108 (irq = 3) is a 16550A Using /dev/ttyS4 is fine. However, using /dev/ttyS5 causes the characters sent to come out of /dev/ttyS4 and NOT out of /dev/ttyS5! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): serial-cs How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Obtain a dual port serial pcmcia card 2. Plug into a PCMCIA slot 3. Attempt to use the serial ports. Actual Results: Use of /dev/ttyS4 or /dev/ttyS5 results in output always occuring on /dev/ttyS4. Expected Results: Use of /dev/ttyS4 should cause output on /dev/ttyS4. Use of /dev/ttyS5 should cause output on /dev/ttyS5. Additional info: This problem also exhibits on Redhat 9.0
