I guess that's what I get for working late into the night and trying to rush myself too much. I can't believe I didn't remember to drop the zero. Apparently my serial ports are setup as /dev/ttyS2 and S3. I may have configured them to use a different irq and/or ioport in the bios, which could do that, I guess. Anyway, I'm now successfully playing with the CerfCube, talking through a serial cable using minicom. A Linux distro. and webserver running on a three inch cube... technology's wonderful. :-) Thanks again, Jacob ----- GnuPG Key: 1024D/16377135 In a world without fences, who needs Gates? http://www.linux.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
