[NTLUG:Discuss] Kubuntu Serial Ports

I have a machine with an on-board serial port, plus I added a four port
serial card. I installed Kubuntu 9.04 (latest download this morning). When
the installation was finished, I did
$ ll /dev/ttyS*
and it showed me a list of ttyS0-ttyS7 as expected. A few minutes later, I
started getting all kinds of low disk space warnings and realized I'd messed
up the partitions.
At that point, it was just as easy to re-install, so I did, setting up the
partitions properly this time.
My problem is now it only shows ttyS0-ttyS3. The on-board port and the
first three ports of the card work fine as com 1-4. But I cannot get it to
show the other four ttyS ports like it did before.
Any ideas on where a setting for maximum serial ports is? I've found it
mentioned a few places in searches, but not actually how to fix it.
Thanks,
Michael
