Can that be done ? getty only has a setting for 115.200 bps. 115 kbps is the pre-divisor 1, i.e. the full clock speed of a standard serial card. You can plug in a card with double speed, and 115200 will actually be 230400 (though the system doesn't know this). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
