Greetings all,

I have a clone Cyclades card, that has worked just fine in pre - 2.0.0
kernels. Last night I upgraded from 1.3.20 to 2.0.10. The kernel compiled
fine, no errors.

The system boots fine with the new kernel, but upon boot I get the message:

Cyclom driver $Revision: 1.36.3.7 $$Date: 1996/04/19 21:06:18 $
Cyclom-Y/ISA found at 0xd4000 but the IRQ could not be detected.

and hence can't use the ports /dev/ttyC0 thru /dev/ttyC8, which used to work
perfectly.

No hardware has changed, so I don't suspect and IRQ conflict. However, I have
tried 2 other IRQ settings just in case, no difference.

I've also tried a differnet address for the card, no difference, and also
dropped back to kernel version 2.0.0, again no difference.

Any help / advice would be most appreciated.

Cheers,

Guy
