Martin THis is certainly difficult info/news below. Before you reboot, detach as many external devices as possible. After bootup, shutdown as any none essential services as you can. You can watch messages with: $ tail -f /var/log/messages & Open a 2nd console. Then again try: $ su root # modprobe agrmodem # modprobe agrserial Copy out the output of $ cat /proc/interrupts to send us If there is again output like that below. There are severe problems and/or the agrsm drivers will not servce the 11c1:063c modem, at least on your System.
