That's all.
I have a Bo-unstable drop from about almost a year ago, and that comment is not in there... thought I did get everything working just right for my current setup, which is ttyS0 - Modem ttyS1 - PalmPilot (or whatever it's called now). I just got a BestPower Fortress (needed it), and I would like to hook up a serial laser printer and, if it works, leave it hooked up. I'm not necessarily short on interrupts yet, but I figured it would be interesting of the slower items could just share an interrupt.
