Hi, Vittorio!
Your kernel settings look similar to mine... so I doubt that's the problem.
Would you please post the results to the following commands. These may
help to diagnose your problem.
$ dmesg | grep -i seri
$ ls -ld /dev/ttyS*
$ ls -ld /dev/tts/*
Also:
Is your serial port a standard, built-in port? Or perhaps are you using one
of those USB-to-RS232 converters? Or even a PCMCIA modem?
Peace,
Gabriel
