Hello, at last i achieved to run the serial port once. I used PS2.EXE to
ensure the port was ON and tpctl to enable it and configure.

But i only achieved to communicate two PC's only once. The rest of the
times the thinkpad is unable to receive any character, the output from the
/proc/tty/driver/serial is:

>0: uart:16550A port:3f8 irq:4 baud:19200 tx:31 rx:0 RTS|CTS|DTR|DSR|CD|RI


I don't know if the options CD and RI are normal or not. The another PC
doesn´t have the CD and RI options when transmitting...

Any idea?. Thanks a lot,


Juan Pablo Martinez.
