Hello,
      This is a problem i have been wrestling with for some weeks now.
I have just built a FreeBSD 2.1.5 box, which has a Stallion EC/32 PCI 
card installed. FreeBSD detects the Stallion Card upon bootup and all of 
its ports, i can dial out from any of the modems using minicom. I have 
installed mgetty-0.98 from the Ports collection, but whenever a user 
tries to dial in, the modem will answer the call, but the user is never 
presented with a login prompt. I tried using the standard getty that 
comes with FreeBSD, but most of the time the user just gets a screen full 
of garbage, only once have i actually seen a user login sucessfully.
Is this a problem with my mgetty configuration or perhaps a problem with the
stallion driver, which is admitedly in alpha-stage.
