Sorry I can't help you more; all I can say is that the xylog serial
ports on the older sun architectures is really known to bite the big
one. I don't know newer models (like my sun4u) even fix that.
I guess serial on sparcs is kinda a joke. Maybe you can get a SBUS
card with a good serial UART on it?
