Marcel,

Your right, it works fine with serial_cs and bcsp.  FANTASTIC!!!! 

The Xircom CBT works fine in 2.6 although quite flakey as the card is 
prone to dropping device connections (which it does in Windows XP as 
well).  Personally I don't like the Xircom card, it is problematic and 
does not seem to support HID's.

Once again, many thanks,

Johnathon
