Duh.  Thanks for straightening me out.  If I'd bothered to read the
subject line, I would have been much less confused :-)

Marco, since the kernel correctly detects your serial port, you should
not need "setserial."

I'm curious about the hang you saw when doing "cat /dev/ttyS0".  I
would expect the "cat" to block until the tablet sends data.  But
it should not affect the rest of the system, and you should be able
to kill the "cat."  Are you observing something different?
