Thanks for your help.  The serial port detection is the same on both
boxes.  The nodes in /dev are the same.  

I decided that as I couldn't find a software configuration problem then
the problem must be in hardware.  I've just put in a spare motherboard
(the standard serial ports are on the motherboard) of the same type.
The problem remains.  Getting desperate.
