What is the output of "ls -l /dev/ttyS*", "ls -l /dev/cua*" ?
Is the serial port in-use when you try to configure it
(uugetty or gpm running) ?
Are your serial ports enabled in BIOS ? Is there IRQ or I/O
conflicts (cat /proc/ioports) ?
What is the result of "strace setserial <your parameter>" ?
Are the failing ports software PNP modem ?
Is serial compiled as module (".config" serial related lines) ?
What is your hardware (Intel UP/SMP) ?
Thanks,
Etienne.
