No problem, in fact we run terminals at 38.4K all the time. I did not have
time to check the documentation about whether this is "supported" or not,
perhaps this is some sort of policy statement rather than fact. If you want
19.2K set the port to the gettydef entry EXTA, and as you might surmise EXTB
is 38.4. One caveat here is that your performance at these speeds will
definitely be hardware dependent (i.e., watch out for cheap serial cards!).

					Good luck,
