Hi
 
  I've been working with 2.3.99-pre1 with our multiport card. And I found a problem on detecting oxsemi
chip on kernel 2.3.99-pre1.
  
  source: serial.c
  function: autoconfig_startech_uarts
     .
    if(state->type == PORT_16550A) {
   
// channel reset before read IDs
     serial_outp(info, UART_LCR, 0); // to ensure not 0xBF
     serial_icr_write(info,UART_CKS,0);
     serial_icr_write(info,UART_CSR,0); // software reset
  .

Above 3 lines should be added before reading IDs of 950.
If you're interesting about OX16PCI954 based multi port card, Please send me e-mail.
I have some evaluation boards for developer.
Thanks.

Regards,
Keonsoon Hwang
