Terry Under Ubuntu CPU=i686, Linux version 2.6.28-15-generic you have two modems installed: "Communication controller: Agere Systems V.92 56K WinModem " CLASS=0780 PCIDEV=11c1:048c with Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: =================================== The modem interrupt (IRQ) is 255 . IRQs of 0 or 255 are not functional!! "Communication controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
