Serial Port driver for PowerMac G4

Hi,

i have bought a Stealth Serial port for my 
PowerMac G4 since i need to make debug on serial. 
There is a driver or anithing else that allow me 
to "see" the serial from Open Firmware?

Thank you

I just pull the video card.  Then serial port will become
the console
(
57600)

Connect the port to another machine running terminal
emulation  
software at 57,600 baud, 8 bit data, no parity, 1 stop bit,
and no  
handshaking. Now on the G4, boot into Open Firmware and type
exactly  
the following:

	" scca" io

and press return. In a few seconds the display should go
black and  
your terminal program will give you the usual Open Firmware
prompt.

If you want the settings to survive reboots do the following
(these  
can always be reverted):

setenv output-device scca
setenv input-device scca
reset-all
