Hello all,Are you sure ? IIRC IT887x are PCI-ISA bridges with additional periphery
I've just installed a multiport serial card released by an outfit called Syba. This is an 8 port serial-only card with an Octopus style breakout cable. The main chipset on it is an ITE IT8871F.
and your lspci shows PLX chip. Can you send complete lspci -vv output ?
Output of dmesg could be useful too.
I've posted up a quick text only page with the diagnostic information from the system (full dmesg, lspci, etc) plus links to pictures of the board (since others might see something important that I'm not aware of). You can access that at http://pcburn.com/files/Syba_serial_controller/index.html
Can you try an attached patch ? I hope it should at least detect UARTs on your board. Be ready that baudrate could be wrong, because we do not know
what frequency is used to clock these UARTs.
