I have just purchased a Kouwell KW-221N-2 PCI I/O Card to
run in a standard
Red Hat Linux 6.2 server.  The server is a Compaq Prosignia
200 which only has
one standard serial (com) port.

/proc/pci reports the following:

  Bus  0, device  10, function  0:
    Serial controller: Unknown vendor Unknown device (rev
1).
      Vendor id=9710. Device id=9835.
      Medium devsel.  Fast back-to-back capable.  IRQ 3.
      I/O at 0x5450 [0x5451].
      I/O at 0x5458 [0x5459].
      I/O at 0x5460 [0x5461].
      I/O at 0x5468 [0x5469].
      I/O at 0x5470 [0x5471].
      I/O at 0x5440 [0x5441].

I used the following setserial command:

setserial /dev/ttyS1 port 0x5450 UART 16550A IRQ 3 baud_base

115200

The command seems to work and a setserial /dev/ttyS1 -a
shows:

/dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x5450, IRQ: 3
        Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 3000, closing_wait2: infinte
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test

When I attach a modem to the port I can cu to the modem but
I get garbage in the log files when trying to establish a
dial up ppp link on the port or if the link does establish
all comms on the link are basically useless.  A ping
returned 130 packets sent 2 returned.
I reconfigured the dial up ppp onto the standard serial
port, established link and the same ping returned all
packets 0% packet loss.

Please help
