The quick fix is to comment-out line 148 of /sys/i386/isa/com.c, which says: comsoftCAR |= 1 << unit; /* XXX */ This is more-or-less the same in NetBSD. Hardware flow control is also broken in this version of com.c - for the time being, you may want to get cgd's com driver modifications: agate.berkeley.edu:pub/386BSD/386bsd-0.1/unofficial/deprecated/com-cgd/ com-beta-0.2.1.tar.Z A much better driver by Bruce Evans is also on the way.
