  It could be your irq settings are not right,
  I had a similar problem earlier this week, after reinstalling Linux
  my modem is com3 irq 7, but it defaults to irq4
  so to change it I use:

   setserial /dev/cua2 irq 7
  
  there are other useful options too
  try man setserial...

  I have to execute this everytime I startup Linux - it keeps changing it
back to irq 4.  It is in my /etc/profile but is there a file I can alter
so that linux knows?
