Just curions, what does POS mean here? :)

These "ST Lab" 2S1P cards are the only kind of PCI I/O card that I was
able to find here at a reasonable price (about $25), and it took me
quite some time to find a company that actually sells them (in stock,
not only in the price list - but if asked, "maybe in two weeks" for 3
months now...). In general, it is difficult to buy anything non-USB
here at reasonable (not "industrial PC") prices. Without these cards,
I'd have to buy USB hubs and USB/serial converters instead...

The patch fixes a bug for _all_ PCI parallel+serial cards, and does
not add NM9835 support yet (I'd like to submit that next - I would
really like to see it in the standard kernel).

Thanks,
Marek
