Hi !

Gotta problem with my internal modem under FreeBSD under both 2.0 and 2.0.5.
It's _not_ detected from the original kernel or any custom kernel I built.

I tried to configure it as com1 (irq 4), com2 (3), com3 (5) - no changes. 
Even if I disable one or both of the other sio's (need only one for mouse 
under X11 anyway) it's still not being seen :-( It can be attached with the 
kernel -c option though, but if probed manually, it returns 0x0 only.

This is the configuration:

386-33 with 8 MB ram, et4000 svga, ide 2spg-board, 200 MB ide-hd, SMC 8-bit
ethernet (io 0x240, irq 2/9, works fine), 3.5" flp, and this noname V.fc
28800 bit/s int. modem (worked great under dos _and_ linux). 
No obvious irq conflict. Besides this problem, everything (net, X11) is fine.

Any further suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Rainer
