Well the driver certainly never uses that value. I guess setserial can poke at it, but it won't do anything with it. I wonder how I should go about trying to figure out why the driver acts so strangely with this particular input pattern. It seems it can't be the tty layer, since other serial drivers seem to work fine. It has to be the jsm. -- Len Sorensen -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
