- Does Linux poll serial ports (i.e. can I use COM2 and COM4 at the same time
- if they are both on IRQ 3). I have looked at the serial code but it just
- gets me dizzy. And I do not see any mention of polling (which is what I
- always thought was the correct phrase). But is Linux suppose to do this?
- And if so PLEASE tell me that there is a trick to enabling it because
- nothing I've tried works.
