There's nothing really wrong with setting the initial speed to 38400 (except 38400 is too slow - why not 115200? :-). Use `stty 115200 </dev/ttyid*' in /etc/rc.serial. >I guess I still don't understand how the modem magically detects >the port speed when the port sets the baud before it says anything >(like "login: "). Perhaps getty sometimes writes something before setting the speed. It does quite a let between the open and setting the speed. Bruce
