There are a couple interesting things I would do here. 1) The tty "flip" buffer stuff was changed in 2.6.16+. Maybe you could try going downwards to 2.6.15 or below and see if the problem still exists. Then try going up to 2.6.19, I believe there were some bugs fixed in 2.6.17/18/19, not sure how many of those made it backported into 2.6.16.25. 2) Try using Digi's "Out-Of-Kernel-Source-Tree"/GPL version of the driver. You can grab the latest and greatest beta version of it from here: ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/beta/linux/dgnc/ Its in source rpm format, let me know if you need it in a tarball format instead. You obviously will have to add in your specific PCI id into the driver, but that should be a problem. 3) I seem to recall that someone mentioned that the Exar 17D154 PCI chips were easily "pushed" into the 8250 driver. It might be interesting to try that route as well.
