Usually PCI modems start at ttyS5 or higher. I had a real ISA modem once but have not seen one since. I had to get a external serial to make SURE I was getting a REAL modem. They do exist though. Wish I new what to do to get it working though. Dale :-) :-) :-) -- www.myspace.com/-remove-me-dalek1967 Copy n paste then remove the -remove-me- part.

[gentoo-user] pppconfig can't find internal modem.
My ADSL connection had a short outage yesterday. I discovered, to my consternation, that my machine's internal modem wasn't being picked up. This is a 1999 Dell PIII that refuses to die. The PCI modem has worked in the past under Redhat and Gentoo. I am aware that I have to allocate more than 4 serial ports in make menuconfig. lspci -v shows... 00:10.0 Serial controller: 3Com Corp, Modem Division 56K FaxModem Model 5610 (rev 01) (prog-if 02 [16550]) Subsystem: 3Com Corp, Modem Division Unknown device baba Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 9 I/O ports at 1430 [size=8] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 I'm file-attaching a copy of .config.
