Hey Matt,
Don't know what's going on with my machine. Here is what I have right now:
Booted Dapper CD and tried "echo blah > /dev/ttyS0" and I'm getting "Device or Resource Busy".
Booted Edgy HD, tried the echo and get "No such device". Then I do the power off/on you described, try the echo again, then it takes half a minute until that command is done, but nothing on the port.
Booted Feisty CD, tried the echo and get "No such device". Then I do the power off/on you described, try the echo again, and get an immediate "Device or Resource Busy".
Booted DSL 3.3 CD with kernel 2.4.26, tried the echo and it works fine. So, at least there's no physical problem with the port. Previously, the Dapper CD also worked...
