I had been using NetBSD 0.9 with tip and cu out through com ports with no 
problems but have since upgraded to NetBSD 0.9 current to get PPP support.

Since upgrading to current the com ports do not work correctly. When I connect
to a port DTR is raised but when I type any characters both tip and cu
drop out with "link down" and "write: Input/output error" respectively.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem is?

	Thanks, dmh
