Hi!
  As I see, there is really something nasty with serial comm.
  - My application doesn't recognize the measuring instrument,
although it's able to dial it over the modem and recognizes that
the modem got the carrier.
  - Nokia Logo Manager and other tools for mobile phones don't
    recognize the phones connected to the serial port.
  - Your application doesn't recognize the Rabbit.
  - There is at least one more case published here that an app
    doesn't recognize the hardware (don't remember exactly which
    kind of hardware it was).

  It seems that there is _really_ a bug which is not visible from
a simple terminal program but influences complex communication.
Some of my ideas:
  - Does wine correctly pass binary data (NULs, XON/XOFs...) ?
  - Does overlapped duplex send/receiving work reliably ?
  
  My hardware is OK because for example gnokii can talk to my
mobile through the same port/cable through which NLM over wine
cannot.
                              With regards,
