The subject says it all, really. The kernel recognizes the serial port and |
| 2 |
assigns it /dev/ttys0, as dmesg confirms, but any attempt to access |
| 3 |
/dev/ttys0, including those made by minicom, setserial and a little test |
| 4 |
program that merely opens the file, fails with an "input/output error". This |
| 5 |
annoys me to no end. Help is appreciated. |

No, you may not goto the washroom. Last time you went to the washroom, we |

found you days later in an air vent. |
