[ILUG] NT -> Linux over Null modem line PPP

[Dave Airlie]

Same cable is currently downloading linux 2.3 kernel from Linux to Linux,
:-), the NT serial cable modem selection seems fine, and I've only
selected IP over PPP,

NT doesn't start sending PPP frames which is what I can understand, it is
as if the direct serial cable modem thingy has it's own underlying
protocol at startup ... which is wierd ..
