I thought so too. But they didn't. And I did it "by hand". As I found
later I set a wrong place. Serial devices were moved to /dev/tts/* now with
simlink in the /dev/ttyS*. But it didn't help anyway.

HZ> Did you load the module for the card ?
There is no needed in special module  - only generic serial support in
kernel I think.

Yes. And as I can see this DL 1.2 kernel supports that too:
