After upgrading from 2.6.11.7 to 2.6.14.3 I seem to be limited to 4 serial ports (or have a problem with a 2-port board). dmesg before:

Serial: 8250-16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 8 ports, IRQ sharing disabled ttyS0 at I-O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS1 at I-O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A ttyS4 at I-O 0x9400 (irq = 21) is a 16550A ttyS5 at I-O 0xa000 (irq = 22) is a 16550A ttyS6 at I-O 0xa400 (irq = 22) is a 16550A

Crashdamage I used something like fvwm on Red Hat 5.0, and could barely stand it. I do not know what desktop there was anymore, but...

The last two ports (0xa000 and 0xa400) are on an SIIG 2-port board. Output from "lspci -vv":
