    Why do think that "date > /dev/ttyc0" should work? Does the line have
 flow control enabled? If there is no carrier, then that command should
 block. What is the "WMESG" for the process that is blocked?
    Also, irq 5 is the standard interrupt for the Cyclades card. Are you sure
 that you have the card actually set to irq 12? Are you sure that you don't
 have an interrupt conflict with another device?
