RE: [Xen-devel] serial console stopped working

I've noticed this too. However, it's not reliable.
I can boot the same xen/xenolinux images and have the console work,
and subsequently have it not work. And then work again. I haven't
figured out what causes it to change states yet.
When the serial console does not work, Xen spews out this line
when I type my first character at mgetty:
(XEN) Unexpected IRQ trap at vector 29.
If I type into the serial console while eth0 is being initialised,
I get an infinite (well, I stopped after 5 minutes) sequence of:
(XEN) Unexpected IRQ trap at vector 79.
(XEN) Unexpected IRQ trap at vector 79.
(XEN) Unexpected IRQ trap at vector 79.
I haven't yet run into the magical way to make it work ...
Note that I _can_ type letters into the serial console during
the earlier phases of the bootup process, eg. before udev is
started.
