Hello,
I have a FreeBSD10.3 server. No customizations regarding kernel etc. On this system I've connected a MGE Pulsar Ellpise UPS. Unfortunately, the motherboard lacks a RS232 needed for communication, so I purchased this PCIe serial board: http://www.ebay.com/itm/272225366025
Problem is that it does not seem to create any serial-type devices.

Not an expert here, but does this mean that the ASMedia bridge (on which the actual RS232 chip connects to) is properly detected, yet the serial logic isn't?
Reading https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/serial.html shows that perhaps I should modify hint.uart.0.* and hint.uart.1.* in /boot/device.hints. Plus, reading around some suggested to go with a custom FreeBSD kernel (which, although I did on FreeBSD 8.X, I'd hate to repeat under 10.x, unless there are no other alternatives).
Any ideas on how to proceed?
EDIT: According to the serial board product page from ebay above, it is "Compatible with Standard 16C550 UART with 16-Byte Transmit-Receive FIFO."
