Greetings all!
I have the SLS version of Linux with a 0.99.6 kernel running
on a 386DX with 8Mb RAM a mouse on /dev/ttyS0 and a modem on
/dev/ttyS1

When I enter kermit I get a I/O error: can't read from line
or something similar. The permissions on this line were
originally rwx-w--w- but I played with all variations with no
positive results. *NO* communications programs will work.
This modem is a Hayes 2400 compatible. I did not have this
problem under 0.99.4 TAMU. All help is appreciated.
