I gotta check this. I have an /etc/rc.d/rc.serial (no ~/init.d/~ )
that was commented out that I un-comment and let it autoconfigure the
modem. SuSE has a /etc/rc.d which is symlinked to /etc/init.d and in
there is /serial, where I have un-commented the manual configuration
line for port and IRQ to match the one I have in Caldera but..
OH S*%&T! I think I selected the wrong UART. I know I have a 16550A
in the Hayes modem and the script I un-commented is for a 16450.
Hmmmmmm.........
