Let me do some surgery :) Interrupt setup is a bit tricky on the VAXen. First, they actually have separated RX and TX IRQ and these aren't static. IRQ probing needs to be redone (at least can't be easily copied) since the new dz_init() is basically a complete new rewrite... > > While at it, I've already implemented some SERIO changes.
