- I just compiled 0.98p4, from the full sources (sick of patching all the way
- from 0.98p0 8-), modifying serial.c to default the third port to IRQ 5
-
- And when i booted it, it doesn't spot "COM3", ie. /dev/ttys2 anymore
-
- ie. you get only the first two ports getting spotted instead of four.
-
- It still works (I ran setserial and it was still set to IRQ 5 and all)
-
- It's nothing vital, I'm just wondering...
