I think what I have in my notebook is the same as this:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Notes:

This was a little tricky to get working. I configured --with-hal=i8xx
and changed the PCI_DEVICE_ID_I845 define to 0x24c6 in
src/ptserial/ptserial-2.4.7.c, as described in database entry #155.

Because SuSE 8.2 ships with gcc3 it was necessary to remove the -Werror
flag from src/ptserial/Makefile and pass the -f flag to insmod when
loading the modules.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't really understand all of his notes and how they might translate
to the shipped (no updates) version of RedHat 9.

Any guidance, please?  Thanks!  dmc
