I'd love to use the psm0 port (I know it is an RS232C serial port) connected to a modem, but I am guessing the the psm driver is getting in the way. It is hard to ask the right question in Google. Anyone know how to use the PS2 port as a simple serial port? I never use a mouse on this machine. Bill Cheswick ches@cheswick.com
