What is connected to the serial port ? When I enable RTS/CTS on ttyS1
and there is my Epson 740 attached, the whole system freezed. I don't
know why this happen exactly. It seems that the printer changes continuosly
with very high frequency the state of CTS, which cause the serial driver
to loop indefinitely. When I detach the cable, Linux awakes. It also happens
with BeOS, but not under MacOS.
RTS/CTS works fine when I connect the serial port to the modem or to
another computer.
Bye.
