FWIW - We have heard Q1 2004 for a FreeBSD driver supporting the uPCI 
card.

In that case, has anyone been able to get any of the various USB Serial 
Hubs (Comtrol sells one as well as Quatech) to work under the USB 
drivers (Most of the manufacturers say "Windows 2000/XP")  Going to USB 
would solve a lot of issues (esp as the old RP PCI cards are rapidly 
going away)  Nature abhors a vacuum :)
