Hi Neo,

Not at this time. Please wait a bit until legal stuff has been completed
so it can be merged.

In meanwhile you can try to determine your IO base address and try it
out with serial's --port=3D0x<base address> argument. With luck you are f=
ine.

Please report what kind of card you have and some details about it (in
example verbose dump of lspci with your serial card section included).

Thanks,
Vesa J=E4=E4skel=E4inen
