Yeah, there seems to be something really weird going on with the serial
port.. Every other reboot it gets detected as having only either com1
and 2, or com 3 and 4.. I have no idea the cause of this.. I've never
seen anything like it.. Has it still been doing this?

When I get some time I'll put a new kernel on there and see if that does
anything for us.

Other than that it everything should be working, no?
