As requested by ForkBoy, I have just updated the wiki with an attachement for a simple serial display program for the juice box. As usual there isn't much original code, it's mostly a combination of the test code with some some routines to fill in the gaps. I think it was adeptwiz that first posted the hint on how to enable the juice box rx line. serialcomm uses software polling. so it drops bytes if the input rate is above 9600 baud. It may be useful for displaying the serial output from other devices like a linksys router. You can find it here http://www.elinux.org/wiki/JuiceBoxFAQHardThings or http://www.elinux.org/wiki/FatJbox I started a new thread so the software would be easier to locate in the future.

Thank you unix_guy!

I will try to look into a irq based solution when I get some time.

I've also started looking into the steps to run uClinux from the xD card. If I get anywhere I'll post the information on the message board and / or the Wiki.

I have updated unix_guy's terminal application to support 115200 baud using the uart rx IRQ and a circular receive buffer.

The new serial application can be downloaded from the Wiki: http://www.elinux.org/wiki/JuiceBoxFAQHardThings

Thanks ForkBoy, it would have taken me weeks to have figured out the interrupts. This will help in my current project,
using the juice box as a fancy serial lcd display(complete with background picture and alpha blending translucent bar graphs) for pc stats like cpu usage,cpu temperature...).
