Indeed. The kernel must have the correct IRQ to drive the port correctly. pppd, on the other hand, does not need to know the IRQ. It simply sends/receives to /dev/ttySx (which is being driven by the kernel). > Problem is, that > (a.) setserial on that "problem machine" (Mandrake install, > again) does not change what the kernel's serial driver "sees", How do you know that? > how to change what the kernel sees as default IRQ, without > a with each booting to-be-repeated setserial-plus-arg command; Just stick setserial-plus-arg in a startup script and it will be automatically executed. That's what the startup scripts are for. Cheers, Steven To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
