on the problematic xubuntu host, i tried...
$ echo TEST>/dev/ttyS0
and
$ sudo echo TEST>/dev/ttyS0

both gave me prompt again

while on the target host, i had...
$ sudo cat /dev/tty00
and
$ sudo hexdump /dev/tty00
and
$ sudo less -f /dev/tty00
and
$ sudo od /dev/tty00

didn't display anything...

one time, i got the following wit hexdump:
0000000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
but i could not repeat this.
