- The correct settings for talking to a Fujitsu-Siemens Primepower 250
(or a Sun VFire 250, or probably any sun) via the serial console
port is 9600 8N1, no software handshake, no hardware handshake.
- You know you're dealing with serious hardware when there's a setting
for altitude in the system configuration. The Primepower 250 uses
this setting to calculate how much the fans should rotate for a
given system temperature.
- Minicom does not handle UTF-8 xterm's or tty's very well.. LANG=C is
recommended.
