Likely it is nothing. Printer is usually parallel (/dev/lp1 or /dev/lp0 in new linux kernels). com0 is usually mouse, and I have my modem on /dev/com1. > > .

Nay, do it in the BIOS. The Bios settings provide an option to chage IRQ and ioport of com0 and com1. Try a different setting that doesn't conflict. If you only use com0, disable com1 completely (if possible). Cheers! Marcus -- "Rhubarb is no Egyptian god."
