thanks shekhar,
but the problem is still not solved, it still does not allow me to use the port 
/dev/ttyS0
i have never connected a ups to that port. i beleive that some error must have occured 
when when i tried to add and remove services during startup using yast.
i am using SuSE version 6.4 .
i suse their is no command as ntsysv.
when i try to stop the ups daemon it gives me an error saying 
please change SMARTUPS_DEVICE in /etc/rc.config.d/smartups.rc.config

help needed immediately
thanking all linuxers

it seems u have connected the ups to ur ttyS0 ie the com port.
well u might have connected your modem there but u have installed a ups 
software (maybe powerd) which checks your ttyS0 for a smart ups. since u 
want to know on wvdial & not on ups i will tell u to type "ntsysv " at 
commandline & disable the ups daemon by deselecting so that it is not 
selected at startup. alternately u can cd to /etc/rc.d/init and run the ups 
daemon (assuming it is called ups)

ups stop.

then u can type wvdial (if u have already confgured wvdial).

see if it works, to repeat ur lines, since i do not know whether it will 
work for u.
