    Hello Toussaint,Bob,many thanks,unluckily on the i486 I have
    zipham compiled with 2.0.38 kernel,I think Slackware,
    and no "setserial" file is contained inside folders...
    Have I to look for a compatible "setserial" or may I use my
    Red Hat version ?
    Thanks a lot both of you,Marco.
