I'm not seeing these, just booted my n800 last night with the cbus
patches from Felipe. I believe all I did was yes "" | ARCH=arm make oldconfig
on the n8x0_defconfig that we still have around.

I've seen things like that with some USB serial dongles earlier,
I believe that the pl2303 based one worked, and then the ftdi
driver one produced garbage. AFAIK, this was related to some
problem with the serial port level shifter, I think this was
with n810.

Regards,

Tony
