Bug#287939: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-k7: synchronisation with a Palm on ttyS0 is broken
I also had problems on my debian (testing) since I did
upgrade my kernel from 2.4.26 to 2.4.27 (was yesterday).
Not with a palm, but with an other package that accesses
temperature sensors over the serial interface
(ttySx --> package digitemp)
In the bug report of digitemp
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=287982)
i found the following link:
https://lists.brianlane.com/pipermail/dt-general/2004-December/000096.html
where you can follow the reason for the problems on
serial interfaces with kernel-image-2.4.27 for the
digitemp package.
The workaround that solved my problem with digitemp:
--> downgrade kernel from 2.4.27 --> 2.4.26
maybe, this solves also your problem with the palm !
hope this helps....
Peter
