Bug#396169: linux-image-2.6.18-1-xen-686: Does not support PC serial ports



Package: linux-image-2.6.18-1-xen-686
Severity: important

It seems that one serial port is supported for a console, but the other
serial port (two ports was a standard feature in PCs until very
recently) is not supported in any way.  If you want to use a modem, UPS,
or other device that connects to a serial port then Xen does not support
it.

I could live without serial port support in domU, but I believe that
it's a necessary feature in dom0!
