I have two problems on two different machines.
First, I have a USR56k FAX modem, which i flash upgraded to v.90. I can
set it up with isapnp for ttyS3, but when i reboot into win98 the modem
is aparently reset and is detected as new hardware. Win98 sets the modem
for com 2, irq 3, so I adjusted my isapnp.conf file accordingly and did
the following setserial commands:
setserial /dev/ttyS1 autoconfig
setserial /dev/ttyS1 spd_vhi
stty -echo < /dev/ttyS1
and i got no error messages, so I thought everything was ok. When i went
into minicom though, and set the serial port to /dev/ttyS1 and tried to
initialize the modem, nothing happens.
The other problem is on an old 486 computer with a Promise VLB I/O card
(I just thought of another problem on this box, which might be related
to this card).
First off, both the backspace and delete keys work as forward delete in
xterm. ^H works, as well as doing a back-arrow and then forward delete.
I checked the Xmodmap file, but everything seemed fine in there. BTW,
the keys work fine in all other applications, xterm is the only one that
is working ass-backwards.
second problem with this box: I tried to recompile a kernel, i selected
a plain ide kernel, with no scsi or special ide chipsets. The kernel
compiled fine, but when i replaced the old vmlinuz file with the new one
and rebooted, the system froze at "Loading Linux..." I have two ideas as
to the cause of this problem, one being that the kernel didn't actually
compile all the way. The other is that i might have needed a special ide
driver for the Promise card (i was stupid and forgot to write down the
chipset when i put the card in). The card is a Promise 2300.
