You have a few choises, 1) use 'procinfo' 2) do; 'cat /proc/interrupts' 3) 'setseriel /dev/ttyS#' Where # is a number, will show the comport info. 4) open up the machine and look whats there. Really 1,2 and 3 will answer your questions, 4 is my Xmas humor.. It looks promising, we will have a White Xmas here, theres snow all over my X screens. > > Father Parthenios > (800) 227-1629 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > www.cybercom.net/~htm > -- Regards Richard.
