    Hmmm...  I originally configured it as a basic 16550, since
sio apparently doesn't have any support for >115.2Kbps anyway, but
even then it looked like the baud rate just couldn't be changed
from 9600.  I suppose it's possible that the LavaPort's interface
is non-standard(?)  Anybody have any experience with this card?
