How do I set up a com port in debian that has a non standard irq?
The port I want to use is 0x2E8 irq2
This is what I tried.
edited /etc/rc.boot/0setserial and added this line:
${SETSERIAL} -b /dev/ttyS3 irq 2 port 0x2E8 skip_test autoconfig
${STD_FLAGS}
and commented out this line:
#AUTO_IRQ=aut

Quick question:
Does anybody know why theres a noticable pause when running ifconfig?

a compiled-in Sangoma Frame-Relay driver. It used to boot
just fine until the upgrade. As it is now, I
