I've tried bazillions of the commands--disabling V.90, &D2 vs. &D3, blah blah, to no avail. As far as I can tell (from their control panel) there isn't any 'magical' init string that windows is sending. But, given the stupidity of the registry it could be buried in there somewhere (needle, haystack). > The OS serial-line drivers *CANNOT* and *DO NOT* impact the modem's > handshake phase.

The TOTALLY strange thing is that I can take my plane jane Zoom 28.8K modem (no V.90 or other stupidity) out of my trusty Gateway running 2.2.8-STABLE, plug it into the new 3.1-R machine and have it NOT work. My /etc/rc.serial does nothing on the 2.2.8-S machine (stock file with everything all commented out). It is just thoroughly bizzare. Can you (or anyone) think of any reason whatsoever, that a modem could come from a fully functional 2.2.8-STABLE system, plug into a 3.1-R system and have me experience these bizzare problems with handshaking, etc.--but have that same modem work under another "os" such as windud? (I've even copied over the "older" version of minicom from my 2.2.8-S system with no success). Thank you very much for your response Doug! It is much appreciated! -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds CEG, CCE, Next Generation Flows, HLA | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 480-554-9092 pgr: 868-6512 | | jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
