Ok. Here is the situation as far as I've been able to assertain ttyS1
is on irq3 (set in the BIOS) I somewhat foolheartedly set the ethernet card to
irq 3, which expains why the comm port suddenly stopped working at about the
same time my network access did.
So now that I've sassed out the problem, finding a solution is proving
difficult. My ethernet card has just two jumper settings:
irq 3 0x0280
or
irq 10 0x0300
My ttyS1 can be set to either 3 or 4, but I can't move it to 4 because then it
conflicts with ttyS0.
Moving ttyS1 is out, which brings up the next problem. irq 10 is
grabbed by aic7xxx. Am I correct in taking this to be the scsi module? I have
a scsi adapter on my motherboard, but at the moment nothing is attached to it.
Can I get rid of aic7xxx, or am I going to lose access to my ide CDROM? I've
also looked into changing the irq of aic7xxx, but haven't been able to find
where it gets configured. It doesn't appear in /etc/modules.conf It would be
nice if I could find it because during bootup, it also appears that it is being
loaded twice.
