Well, I had tried 16450 as a cautious intermediate step and was
so thrilled when the modem actually responded to something that
I stopped there for a bit.  16550A works fine.

Having trouble with PPP (or getting set up to use PPP, I guess).
When dialing with minicom, one ISP dumps me straight into a shell
when I connect (after having to enter my password twice for some
reason), and the other one that I use puts garbage on the screen
as soon as the connection is established (wrong parity?).
