Yes, I do have the NetBSD-1.5 i386 kernel sources and I have built a kernel which works, although I didn't change much from GENERIC. So, notwithstanding that the LTMODEM documentation says a UART is there, how do we tell whether there really is a UART?
Thanks, Jason, you are such a great guy to help me on this. Please keep in mind that, if getting the LTMODEM running becomes too much work, I can exchange the LTMODEM for another kind which already is supported.
