You can change it, but what I meant is that all actual use of the serial ports (mouse, dialin, dialout), chould use /dev/ttySx.

My system is still configured as /dev/cuax. Should I change it to /dev/ttySx? Is so, how should I do it? I have seen a 0setserial script in /etc/rc.boot.

I have 'setserial /dev/ttyS1 spd_vhi' in my /etc/rc.boot/(whatever-serial) script, and in the diald.options file, have 'speed 115200'. It is faster now than when I had 'speed 38400' there. I had thought that setting the 'spd_vhi' flag with setserial made '38400' max the interface, but it turns out that '115200' makes it faster. -- Karl M.

No, you should be using /dev/ttyS1. Use of the cua devices is deprecated, and pppd's case, it can cause problems.

Serial communications question
I'm having a problem with my modem. Using chat+pppd to dial out, I can connect, but not negotiate ppp. Sometimes I can negotiate ppp, but the connection is very slow. However, if I first run Minicom and quit without reset, chat+pppd works quite well and the connection is fast. I'm guessing that chat+pppd doesn't set up the port the way Minicom does. Is there any way for me to set it up without having to start and exit Minicom every time? I've checked the man page for setserial(8) but I don't know what settings to change. The modem is a Cardinal 33.6 external on COM 2. I'm using the /dev/cua1 device; is this the correct device? Any help would be appreciated. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
