Hi, Thanks for your mail. on dmesg | grep tty i get : Xen virtual console succesfully installed on ttyS0 (That can explain why it is not weorking on ttyS0, but than why did it not work on ttyS1 --> i did get an device not found when i started minicom with a configuration) on # cat /proc/tty/driver/serial file or dir not found and a ls /proc/tty/driver i get: rfcomm So serial does NOT exist What do i have to do about that ??? compile a new kernel ???
