J'ai entendu un bruit couloir disant que certains devices avaient changés dans la version 2.1. du noyau, en particuliers les devices de communication avec le port serie.
Les devices /dev/cua... ne devraient plus etre utilisés avec ces noyaux, ils sont remplac'es par /dev/ttyS..

Il faut peut être chercher dans cette direction...

Actually, this is ttyS2. The powers that be keep saying the callout ports
(cua?) are deprecated and should not be used. They do open with different
default settings, though. This may only be true in the 2.0.x kernel tree,
though. I think they got serious about taking out the cua? stuff in 2.1.
Anyone know about this?
