[parisc-linux] Serial port problem.

[Eric Huiban]

Hi all,

I just need to install an 'old' modem (USR Sportster V34) on a freshly 
installed HP 9000/730. Using minicom i only managed to communicate
with the modem up to 19200bps. I'm using ttyS0 as backup console port and 
ttyS1 as modem port.

here is the content of my serial.conf generated during the debian 
installation :

###PORT STATE GENERATED USING AUTOSAVE-ONCE###
###AUTOSAVE-ONCE###
###AUTOSAVE###
#
[snip : comments]
/dev/ttyS0 uart 16550A port 0x0000 irq 90 baud_base 454545 spd_vhi
/dev/ttyS1 uart 16550A port 0x0000 irq 89 baud_base 454545 spd_vhi

Is there something specific to the HP 9000 computers , or just a little 
something i missed somewhere ?

Thant you all !

Such as a UART speed limit?
Depends on the model, but on some older machines, 19200 is all you get.
Subject has come up on the mailing list before; info should be in the
ML archives.
