Oops. I was confused.

Yeah. That is your next best step. You might try the Edgy LiveCD if
the download time is not an issue.

I would also consider taking this problem to LKML, to see if you can
find someone who knows the serial port setup code. Although not every
developer wants to help debug an older kernel.

But since Dapper is going to be around for several years, your effort
in looking into this problem will not be wasted! Please do file that
bug report!
