usually port 1 = ttyS0 is the connector for mice usually port 2 = ttyS1 is the connector for modem or terminal > > Debian cant't find ttyS2 and my modem is on this serial port. thats right, ttyS2 is the 3. serial port which the box does'nt have > How can I configure ttyS2, so that I can use my modem. if sure You have this port and the bootmessage show it have a look at '/etc/inittab' search for a line like #T3:23:respawn:/sbin/mgetty -x0 -s 57600 ttyS3 change it to T2:23:respawn:/sbin/mgetty -x0 -s 57600 ttyS2 # ^^^^^ #note You must add Your modemspecific parameters here save the inittab and execute init q thats all -- Peter
