Autobauding is really device-independant (as long as there's a
UART in there somewhere). I've got some code that works,
but hasn't yet been installed becuase I've yet to shake some final
problems with it. I can autbaud from 110 to 9600 with 3 carriage
returns, and can detect the range from 300 - 2400 with one.

	I have a modified getty, a new user-level autobauding program and
some minor kernel mods. If decvax!watmath!watarts!eric @ berkeley (or anyone
else) is interested, send me mail. Though this is now at user level,
it may migrate into the kernel for performance reasons.-------
