Acctualy if using default kernel for Debian 2.1 (I think 2.0.36) everything works fine. I didn't even start using the port since I need to change it's IRQ to 5 I used setserial and received the message about busy port. Let me add that I don't have any additional serial cards. This port is used for internal modem.
