Is it possible to connect two ports and run getty on one port and minicom on
another ? We should check that UARTs are really working.

I used the on-board serial port as a known working control (after getting it to work with the other onboard serial port) to try and connect over to one of the Syba card ports (using Cutecom & getty). The lines light up, but there's nothing getting sent from the 8-port as far as I can see. The onboard port works as I'd expect, the Syba (running getty identically from inittab) doesn't.
