Ok, can you get a dmesg from a boot with your custom kernel with puc in
it and the output from kldstat -v with that kernel booted?

Here's the info you requested. When not loading the puc module in
/boot/loader.conf, the puc device isn't found, though pciconf -lv shows
the device. I added the output of pciconf -lv at the end.

Output of dmesg

This kernel doesn't have 'device puc' in it. If it did, it would have the
'pci/puc' and 'puc/sio' modules listed in the kldstat -v output. Make sure
you have built a custom kernel with 'device puc' enabled, installed it, and
are booting from it.

Output of kldstat -v

Id Refs Address Size Name
1 11 0xc0400000 63072c kernel
Contains modules:
Id Name

No puc this list tells me 'device puc' isn't in this kernel. :)


Thank you for all your help.

I thought I had built and installed the new kernel. This time I did
both and now dmesg shows:

puc0: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> port
0x9000-0x901f,0x9400-0x941f mem 0xe30
04000-0xe3004fff,0xe3000000-0xe3000fff irq 16 at device 8.0 on pci0
sio1: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio1: type 16550A
sio1: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
sio2: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio2: type 16550A
sio2: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
sio3: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio3: type 16550A
sio3: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
sio4: <Oxford Semiconductor OX16PCI954 UARTs> on puc0
sio4: type 16550A
sio4: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode

and kldstat -v | fgrep puc yields:

174 pccard/puc
175 pci/puc
176 cardbus/puc
187 puc/sio
337 puc/ppc

Now when I run tip using sio1 - sio4 (aliases for /dev/cuad1-4), I get a message saying connected, but when I press enter, instead of getting my firewall's menu, I get
nothing.

I rebooted the system into Windoze and it works fine using TerraTerm Pro.
