AFAIK, the default setup of the driver when initiated is 19200,8,1, no parity. But maybe I'm wrong.

The default baudrate can be set in the Linux kernel menuconfig.
There is no error when opening the UART - or for that matter when writing to it or reading from it. From what I can tell though nothing ever comes out of the RS-232 port. I mean even if I did get the baudrate and parity wrong, one would still expect *something* to come out, right?
By now I checked that I have the correct pin assignments many times...
Does anyone know whether the RS-232 port is wired as DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) or DCE (Data Circuit-terminating Equipment)?
