As of 2.0, it works fine, but loses if you take it to a high speed. It is most reliable at 9600 cps. I have not tested the serial port with 3.0. Cheers, Ben Thread at a glance:

This got the mental gears working and I am intrigued by the notion of using the 780 as a MIDI controller. So, what is the status of NetBSD serial port support on the 780?

The application I am interested in requires a transfer speed of about 31250 bps (give or take %1; this is full MIDI rate). Does anyone think it could be a possibility to crank this kind of speed out of an MP780's serial port?
