A bit of update concerning my inability to connect to my empeg (dev 1.0) using emptool and serial on RH 5.2:

emptool --serial --debug 2 /dev/ttyS0 says something like 'no data timeout in state 0'. xosview shows activity on the port all the time. It seems that some exchange does happen: when I connect to empeg using terminal emulator after failed emptool connection attempt, the player does not respond to serial line commands (q, for exemple), but just beeps, untill killed by ctrl-c (otherwise it behaves normally).

Any ideas?
