Yes, I'm sure enough about that, but the rest is new to me. Somewhere, on
one of the many communities I frequent, a fellow posted about UART
incompatibilities between old modems and new boards and said he had a patch
that would fix it. At the time I didn't think I'd need it (famous last
words) and now, well, here I am searching for it!
what else could explain? Something other than irq, mechanical (cables,
connections etc) or drivers?
It's frustrating!
