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?
