This is not a real patch but it works fine for me:
--- drivers/char/serial.c.orig Thu May 3 09:29:00 2001 +++ drivers/char/serial.c Thu May 3 09:29:34 2001 @@ -1764,8 +1764,8 @@ /* * !!! ignore all characters if CREAD is not set */ - if ((cflag & CREAD) == 0) - info->ignore_status_mask |= UART_LSR_DR; +// if ((cflag & CREAD) == 0) +// info->ignore_status_mask |= UART_LSR_DR; save_flags(flags); cli(); if (uart_config[info->state->type].flags & UART_STARTECH) { serial_outp(info, UART_LCR, 0xBF); This stuff got changed between 2.4.3 and 2.4.4 but I don't know why and it broke my serial console. Please let me know when you know the "real" fix for this problem.
