Thanks for the pointer. I've downloaded and tried setserial as follows: $ setserial /dev/ttyS14 port 0xdcd8 irq 10 uart 16650A autoconfig which is the info given by lspci, but that doesn't help. I've tried it on ttyS14 (the device discovered at boot) and I've tried it on ttyS3 (an unused device). I have a second modem. I might give that a try. I will also try the Ubuntu 'breezy' distro. -Jeff
