Hello,

Thankyou for your comments and encouragement. I downloaded ltmdm-1.4.tgz 
from the port maintainer's web-site and installed it with the ports 
system. It appears to install with one warning:

Object directory not changed from original 
/usr/ports/comms/ltmdm/work/sys/modules/ltmdm

Upon rebooting the modem is not detected (no mention in "dmesg | grep 
ltmdm") but the ltmdm module is loaded. I have tried:

1) re-configuring the kernel with different sio options
2) re-installing the system and installing the port with the GENERIC kernel.
3) playing around with the laptop's BIOS settings in conjunction with (1).

All to no avail. I have a couple of questions though:
1) what version of the BIOS are you using? I have version 9.30 and 
perhaps this is significant?
2) do you have any particular options enabled in your kernel 
configuration file?

My next move will be to contact the port maintainer.

Thanks once again,

Ian.-
