-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Have you looked at the dmesg output to see what port gets assigned to your modem? I have a U.S. Robotics 2976 pci hardware modem that shows up under /dev/ttyS1 under linux 2.6.15.1, and a portion of my dmesg output looks like: Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:10.0 (0100 -> 0101) PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 0000:00:10.0 PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with 0000:01:00.0 0000:00:10.0: ttyS1 at I/O 0x1010 (irq = 11) is a 16550A In the above, ttyS0 is a physical serial port, while ttyS1 is the modem.
