I don't remember the progress of the new cpm serial drivers in 2.4,
I've been spending too much time in 2.6.  If you find a 2.4 kernel
with the new serial driver model (drivers/seral/cpm_uart) that
would be a big help.

Yes, there are newer versions and I've never tried what you are
doing.  The console code has always been sensitive to configurations.
Although the #defines may look like it will work, the code often isn't
there to support it, and I know wasn't there in that old version of the 
code.

Thanks.
