Whoops - me bad. Should have been a bit more specific... This is the HP
PDC console settings I'm talking about, not the Linux console. I set it to
serial_1.19200.8.none and it happily stays at 9600. I thought that perhaps
it was auto-detecting the terminal speed and resetting itself, but if I
set it that way, then reset the terminal to 19.2 it won't see any display
until I reset it to 9600...

It's not critical to increase it, but when it's needed 9600 sure is slow
:-)
