Doh!

Having ascertained that linux on ppc does not like my graphics card (hangs at 'returning from prom_init'), I plugged
in my null modem and got no output. This was curious - perhaps my null modem was broken. I opened it up and found that, in fact it was not a null modem at all, but something very strange I had built a few years ago which just happened to have 'null modem' written on it. Note to self: do not reuse components which have permanent marker labels on them....
