Well the 2.4.19 build .7 that I downloaded today works great on my 3000A processors and I am now running with glibc 2.3.1 installed. > Also, is it possible to run a modem on ttyS1 (I assume this is the name > of the port labeled '1' on the back, I run the console on ttyS2 labeled > '2' on the back).

I discovered that port '3' is ttyS2 and port '2' is ttyS0, and the port works fine. Doesn't seem to mind minicom at 57600 or 115200, although I don't yet know if it is just limiting it to 38400 automatically. > And finally, does anyone know if there is any work being done on the > PMAG-AA in linux?

I will probably do a cross compiler setup soon to get a faster compile. Len Sorensen
