Any There might be some conflict here with speakup and such options. When Kirk so wonderfully wrote the transport driver for me and I compiled speakup into 2.2.12, I had serial consoles compiled in at the time, though I hadn't actually set the thing up. Speakup 0.08 did not like this at all and oopsed out. Removing it from my kernel fixed it nicely. I don't know if anything has been done about this or not, but it's possible that such code will not work at all with speakup installed. Geoff.
