wrong baud rate

[NewtownGuy]

Hello,

I'm running Fedora Core 3. I can't get the right baud rate on COM1 today. I'm running at root. It was working fine two days ago...

[root@-001 etc]# setserial /dev/ttyS0 baud_base 9600
[root@-001 etc]# setserial /dev/ttyS0 -a -v
/dev/ttyS0, Line 0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
        Baud_base: 9600, close_delay: 61568, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 24064
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test auto_irq

[root@-001 etc]#

I'm verifying the data rate using Hyperterminal on Windows. I set up a number of connections at different speeds, and the only one that receives my data correctly is the one at 115,200.

I ran setserial /dev/ttyS0 baud_base 9600 in rc.local, and again from the command line (as shown above).

I want 9,600 baud but I'm getting 115,200. What am I doing wrong ?

Thank you.

115,200 is the default for ttyS0. I'm not sure but I seem to remember ttyS1 is set to 9600 by default.

Thank you.

As there's only one COM port on my Linux motherboard, how would I assign COM1 to ttyS1 instead of to ttyS0 ?

But why can't I control the baud rate of the port ?
