Re: Disabled COM1: ttyS0: LSR safety check engaged!



Not sure about the keyboard error, but the LSR safety check
messages are because setserial is trying to load your
autosaved seriel port settings, which are now different. 
To update it (and thus fix the error message) do the
following:

man setserial
setserial /dev/ttyS0 autoconfig
setserial /dev/ttyS0 autoconfig
(not sure why but sometimes I've had to actually do this
twice)

then remove the 1st line in /etc/serial.conf if it is
###PORT STATE GENERATED USING AUTOSAVE-ONCE###

That should update your serial ports to the new settings.
