Hi Hans,
I was trying something like: cu -l /dev/cuaU0 -s 9600
I did also try the same with /dev/ttyU0, both with various speeds from
300 to 115200.
Interestingly, I also tried doing a cat /dev/random > /dev/cuaU0 and
that didnt throw an error (Dont know if it actually sent anything as I didnt
have a scope hooked to the line). Like I said in another email, I will try
moving the machines around between the USB1 and 2 stack tongiht and see if I
can pin it down to a specific combination (MP vrs non-MP, AMD64 vrs i386)
