Cyclades clone card

I have a clone of a Cyclades 8 port card that doesn't seem to work. The
card is an ISA card with 2 CD1400 RISC serial chips. The card uses
memory mapping to 0xd400 (or others selectable with jumpers) and IRQ 10
(other selectable with jumpers). The problem I get is that the card isn't
detected with the Linux driver. This is with a 486 board running a Cx 5x86
CPU. If I disabled the internal and external cache and enable write-through
cache it gets detected but the IRQ isn't detected. I put the card in a
Pentium machine, ASUS MB, and it isn't detected with any BIOS settings.

Has anybody every experienced problems like this with Cyclades cards.

Cheers.
