For me it's not that easy... I tried pointing it to both cua0 and cua1 (Rockwell and USR respectively) and neither one works. (FYI both are internals.) I wanted to find out if there was some software that would probe my hardware settings (what's on cua1, its irq, hex address, etc.) so I can use setserial or some other utility to get my modem(s) working. Right now if I use minicom to test each port nothing would end up happening. Shouldn't this be straightfoward?
