I am having trouble getting the serial port on my laptop to work. I have a
Dell Latitude running potato. The port works fine when I boot into Windows -
it is Com1 at x03F8, irq 4. I have had no luck getting it to work in Linux,
however. After boot, "dmesg" gives me:
. . .
Serial driver version 4
Sound wasn't working because /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer weren't user
read/writeable... duh :-\
For networking I had to run pump and not dhclient. What's more, I had to
run pump without any switch first and then run pump -R (don't know if
the pump -R was even necessary).
Anyway, it's fixed...

Why do you want to burn you CPU? a fan is very cheap.. less than $15 some
models. You can buy one in all computer stores.
Just curious.. why do you want to make this? (maybe you have other
solutions)

I have a logitech firstmouse+ (imps/2 protocol for both gpm and xfree).
The mouse is erratic in X unless I first kill gpm.
