Thanks for the tip. I manually edited Kconfig and .config and forced the serial modules to be compiled in (not modules), and now the port works fine. I also forced my X10 driver into the kernel in the same way, but it doesn't appear to get initialized. I sure wish I knew what I'm doing wrong...

FATAL: Error inserting 8250 (...): Device or resource busy

Xen uses the console too, you might want to check your boot options
and the documentation.

Perhaps the busy error code refers to an IRQ (check the 8250 source
code to make sure), so you could look in /proc/interrupts and see if
anything else is using the same IRQ that the 8250 is trying to grab.

Same problem, clue about 8250 being modularized on SuSE but not other distros:

Same problem, possible solution offered (didn't work) and a clue about
IRQ problems:

x10_cm19a: Unknown symbol force_evtchn_callback

Nothing else in dmesg or syslog?

I usually solve this kind of problem by fiddling with the kernel version :-)...
