Vic, did you actually get the synth to start blabing with
serial=1,9600N8?  Because that shouldn't work according to there
documentation.  I am sorry I haven't posted any more messages about this
topic.  But last sunday I figured it out.  The line should be

serial 0 9600

This would be sending data out the com1 or ttyS0.  

Again what synth are you using?

Oh and the biggest thing of all...  The oficial word from Bill is don't
use the 6.1 boot disks.  They are broken.  Use the 6.2 disks.  They work
better.  I am not exactly sure what is broken about these disks.

Actually, I changed the line from 1 to 0 because I needed ttyS0 and not
ttyS1. I redownload the 6.2 images and give them a try.
Also, several of us should write to RedHat asking for text-only printer
setup utility because it seems as though they have only printtool for X
interface and nothing similar to that in the shell prompt.
Regards,
Vic
