termios problem

[Angelo Fraietta]

I have found the problem.
The PC that I am using is a very old PC, which I think is not using a 
16550 UART and probably not full duplex. Everything worked fine at most 
times, however, if data was received at the same time, the Tx seemed to 
get lost, and so the transmit function never returned.

I overcame this by setting the retry time-out in the application that 
communicates with my RTEMS device to a slower speed. This overcame the 
problem.

I want to say, however, the problem did not occur on my embedded device 
(DIMMPC) because I think the UART is full duplex.
