compiled/updated as per the instruction in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=870640 and it still did not work. However did find a work around on the X41 anyways..

echo -x "\x03" > /dev/ttyS0 #typing this at console seems to reset the table ^_^

Also:
echo -x "\x00" > /dev/ttyS0 #disables it completely
echo -x "\x01" > /dev/ttyS0 #enabled but very erratic, can actually reproduce symptoms sending this
echo -x "\x02" > /dev/ttyS0 # also erratic

Since sending character 03 worked, stopped there. Thought sending data to the port might reset it, guess was right n_n..

hope this helps...
