Uuhh. My bad.

Increasing the DC serial port speed may help alleviate or eliminate the issue. For those willing and able to roll their own kernels, a patch is attached that you can apply to hijack253 that should eliminate the problem.

me@here kernels$ls

hijack253

fixeq.patch

me@here kernels$ cd hijack253

me@here hijack253$ patch -p1 <../fixeq.patch

patching file arch/arm/special/hijack.c

me@here hijack253$ make dep && make zImage

Otherwise give me a few minutes and I'll get a binary together.
