Yan,

This is a good suggestion. I had not thought of it being a local 
problem. Even when I do connect I sometimes still see the "input 
overrun(s)" error. So it makes perfect sense.

I don't really know how to reconfigure the Serial port to fix this 
though? It's the Com5 (/dev/tts/4) port that is created from the 
PC104 bus connection. I have setserial and a few other tools but 
these just adjust the baud rates and such. How would I go about 
making changes to the port?
