PSC in UART mode on TQM5200S

[Leopold Stotch]

Thank you for the answer, Grant !
I knew nothing about port_config register before your answer :-(
I haven't changed any processor registers yet
because i'm still searching where i can do this.
Can you tell me, is it UBoot specific or kernel specific or both ?
And i already know about MPC5200's device tree in 2.6.x kernel but not
in 2.4.x...
