serial ports in 2.4.x

2001-06-24 Thread Jens Gecius
Hi folks, I don't _exactly_ know if this might be an issue for the kernel. However, I noticed that I used to be able to download pictures of my digicam (nikon 600) via /dev/ttySx to the box using gphoto 0.4.3 all the time. At some point, unfortunately I don't recall if it happened while switchin
