Just an aside, I've had this patch in my own internal tree for over a
year I never thought it would be kernel acceptable... but I noticed

Hi,
I have come across a 16550A myself (in VMware) and so, tested it.
Linux reports it as a "16550A" while OpenBSD says it's a "NS16550A" --
output to this serial console (vmware: file) works fine, though.
My real box's serial is also a 16550A but havenot tested that- got no cable.

Does it work if you set the baud rate manually, as

Hi,
I attached a null modem cable to my notebook and I'm seeing garbage as
soon as the serial driver is loaded. I tried booting with init=/bin/bash
to be sure that it's not some rc script doing strange things to the
serial port, but this didn't solve the problem.
This is the relevant part of .conf
