That's nice. And what are you doing to access it? Using isapnp to
set its params, then setserial to tell the kernel about them (after
disabling the same resources on the mobo), then using minicom to talk
to the line .... ?

: anything on the hardware.  The modem has been working with the old kernel.

: 3. The KDE window fails to start by issuing "startx".  The error message
: related to the framebuffer of 800x600 or something like that.

Why are you using it? Use vga mode.

: Can anyone please give me some suggestions or I will have to blow it out

Report what you are doing, the state of the machine, and the rsults
(verbatim) of your tests ...
