hola amigos,
i have a strange problem. my modem won't work (doesn't
transmit/recieve any packets or write any output to the screen) unless
i constantly wiggle the mouse. as soon as i stop moving the mouse the
modem stops working and it starts working again fine just as soon as i
start moving the mouse again. the mouse (Logictech/serial) is on
/dev/ttyS0 and IRQ 4 and the modem (Motorola Surfer/internal w/ the
Rockwell chipset) is on /dev/ttyS2 IRQ 4. however, if i put the modem
on /dev/ttyS1 IRQ 3 or /dev/ttyS3 IRQ 3 the problem still shows so i
guess it is not IRQ related, right? has this happened to anybody here
and could you suggest a solution please? thanks for any help.
