Cyclom Multi-Port Cards

Hi,

Here is something I found didn't know if anyone knew it or not.  It
comes from the Cylcades website under Linux Tech Support.

Unlike most nonintelligent multiport serial cards, the Cyclom cards do
not
need to use setserial to be recognized by the system.

In fact, about the only useful setserial commands are those that remap
the
"38400" speed to faster speeds.

setserial /dev/ttyC0 spd_vhi    remaps 38400 to 115200
setserial /dev/ttyC0 spd_hi     remaps 38400 to 57600
setserial /dev/ttyC0 spd_normal resets 38400 back to 38400

When using this feature, you tell your programs (mgetty, etc.) to use
"38400".  (Telling getty to use 115200 does not work; hence this
workaround.)
