Way back when the serial port input problem first came up I ended up reversing a lot of changes in serial.c because I didn't know where the problem was. Since then, I think this has been identified to be that old kernels ignored CREAD and some apps didn't set it correctly.
If this is all true then instead of reverting to an older version of serial.c, it would be more approriate to put: /bin/stty cread at the top of /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit (for Red Hat based systems) if you haven't updated init and other processes that need fixing? Is this correct? Thanks!
