Hello Ryan,
sorry for being a newbie, but:

Jay,
There was a major number change for the MUX driver in the 2.4 kernels.
Check the major number for /dev/ttyB0, and either change it to 11 from
60 or 60 from 11.
Hope that helps!

Hello,
you can check the major and minor number for /dev/ttyB0 by changing to
/dev and typing "ls -l ttyB0". The fifth column of the output is the
major and minor number of the device.
If it's the wrong major number, delete /dev/ttyB0 and create a new
device file via mknod. I think "mknod /dev/ttyB0 b XX" should do the
job. Replace XX with the major number you need.
Greetings,
Ruediger
