I am currently trying to set up my modem to use slip. The problem I have is that FreeBSD doesn't want to recognize my modem. It is a Supra 14.4k internal modem. It is set up as COM2, at x2F8, irq 3. When FreeBSD boots it says 'sio1 not found'. I had the same problem with FreeBSD 1.0e. Before it would recognize the port after a cold boot, but not a warm boot, and now it won't recognize it at all. It recognizes sio0 which is a regular COM port connected to my mouse. Does anyone know why this is? Thanks. Bob Birlingmair rbirling@ee.umr.edu University of Missouri - Rolla
