Re: B20: serial ports status?

["Andy Hare" <ahare at btinternet dot com>]

This problem shows itself to be in the select() function call within the
serial_read code. I am currently trying to find and fix this problem but I
may be sometime as it has to fit in with my MSc studies and with getting
married in the summer, both of which suck most of my free time away.

I am using angel/ARM with a Atmel EB01 under NT and using Insight to drive
it. The problem only appears to affect the single stepping modes as the run
and continue modes do appear to function, but there is not as much comms
going on at this point.
