the blazer requires a null modem cable to connect it to the computer not a straight through serial cable.

On the blazer's speech config menu I set it from parallel to serial. however I tried starting grml with it on serial and parallel and still no speech. I know this can be done but I just don't know how. I'd like to know what I"m doing wrong here. Thanks for any hep.
