Hi,

I am using a serial console to connect to a cubox-i. As terminal program I either use "screen -fn /dev/ttyUSB0 115200" or minicom. If I paste some text
in the terminal, after about 30 characters the content gets lost.

Is there a better way to run a serial console?

Thanks
Rainer

The problem is likely that the characters come in more quickly than the soft- and hardware on the cubox-i can work through them. On i.MX6 you
might be able to tune the water mark level of the FIFO so somewhat
lessen the problem.

The microcom built into busybox can delay submission, e.g.

busybox microcom -d 20 /dev/ttyUSB0

The other programs to drive a serial console, don't support this AFAIK.

Thanks for the explanation and the microcom reference.

Excellent advise that makes u-boot a lot easier :-)

Thanks
Rainer
