Hi Raymond, is it an external modem connected to COM1? That port is supposed to use IRQ 4, not IRQ 3 (which is for COM2=/dev/ttyS1). You might also try to use setserial like this: setserial -b /dev/ttyS0 auto_irq skip_test autoconfig session_lockout To add/drop options, see the man page. If you have an _internal_ modem configured with jumpers to react to COM1, IRQ3... again, it is better to use standard COM1-IRQ4, although this is up to you. If you experience the error message configuring an internal modem and if you are sure it is jumper-configured the same way as you tell setserial, this might mean you've got a winmodem... Look up http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html Best, a.
