This can happen if the modem doesn't get DTR from the computer,
check that you have the DTR (or TR) led on. If thats the problem
then you can tell the modem to ignore DTR with at&d0 (from memory,
check your modem manual)
Are you using /dev/ttyS?, /dev/cua? are obsolete.
Did you just upgrade the kernel or the distribution? If you just
upgraded the kernel, and the distribution isn't 2.2 ready you might
need to upgrade some software. Have a look at
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes
Try using minicom for some testing, it might help narrow down
where the problem is.
