Things are working fine in general, except for my modem, which is connected to the (only) serial port of the machine. The kernel seems to be recognizing the port -- at least I'm getting the following messages at boot time Mar 7 13:02:02 karlsruhe kernel: sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa Mar 7 13:02:02 karlsruhe kernel: sio0: type 16450 I have compiled and installed kermit, I can "set line", "set speed", etc. to /dev/cua00, but when I "connect" and try to talk to the modem via Hayes-commands, I get no response whatsoever. The modem and the cable are OK, too -- they do work on DOS- and Windows-machines. Any ideas as to what I may be missing? Thanks for any and all help... - Gerhard ----------------------------------------------------------------- Gerhard Mehldau mehldau@poing.m.isar.de
