changing to the ati driver made life worth living. far out videos actually work really well now. i cant believe the stress my poor little cpu must have been under with the fb driver =\
If you use GNOME, install 'acme'. Otherwise, there's pbuttonsd and a few other GUI-ish ones for wmaker and so on.
im a staunch Enlightenment fan. i try to keep as little gnome on my system as possible =) no offence to gnome fans. ill look into acme and see if i can get it going.
You should be able to use it immediately with minicom. There's a driver for it which just makes the slightly odd serial interface work.
does it just show up as ttyS0? i dont know if the driver is loaded or what.
