Which is fine, but you need to change a jumper on the serial port to tell it that it
is IRQ 5 now - changing the sources won't do anything at all if you don't change the
hardware. If your serial board won't let you change the IRQ to 5, you're outa luck.
Once it's on IRQ 5 it should work fine
(and if you're using the AUTO_IRQ #define, you shouldn't have to even change that line
in serial.c any more)
(Yep, It works for me now, TyTso (the AUTO_IRQ) !)
Happy serialling !
