Com Port Woes

I’ve slayed the evil devc-ser8250 and restarted it using settings for my
internal modem on com3. Problem is, how can I make it start up using these
settings all the time, as opposed to having to log in as root every time I
boot up, slay and reset, then log back out? I’ve gone over all of the
config and startup files I could find (and comprehend… :confused: ) and I found
where the driver is defined in a config/startup file, just not how to force
arguments. Help?

You can run commands at startup by creating the file:

/etc/rc.d/rc.local

and putting the commands you normally type manually into
this file. Don’t forget to slay devc-ser8250 before starting
a new one.

Is there any way to alter how the drivers (like devc-ser8250) are loaded
without slaying them?
