I've had bad luck with 2.2.5 and would care to stay away from it. ;) I'll find a copy of the 2.2.5 boot.flp. Yup, used visual to set the addresses, which are the same is in the BIOS. I even tried changing the BIOS vars and matching with visual config the same addrs. I didn't try all the possible combinations because that would take about a year. > > sio0 not found at 0x3f8 > > sio1 not found at 0x2f8 > > sio2 not found at 0x3e8 > > sio3 not found at 0x2e8 > > lpt0 at 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa > > This is indeed very strange. And does give little hint as to a solution. I What I was just gonna do is look at the 2.2.6 sio code and add some printf's and try to find the problem. I just wanted to see if anyone else saw this problem and had already devised a fix. > assume that DOS/Windows does see the interfaces ? I do belive that I'd assume that too. See I erased any trace of m$ off my hard drive within one hour after opening the box. But the manual shows screens for using the modem under Win95. I guess I could try creating a boot floppy for win95 and testing the ports. But it's a new laptop, so I figure it SHOULD work. > toshiba uses their own chipset; but ours (admittedly an early model Yeah, I know. I don't like proprietary hardware, but toshiba isn't the worst. They use the s3 video card and a supported CS sound chip, so I can't complain too much. So far, everything else has worked perfectly without major modification, at least. > with a 'european' approved modem) does work fine. And you are not having > any docing station connected ? No doc station, unless you consider transferring floppies back and forth ;) Also I have a patch for the APM/mixer device to reset the mixer's params after a resume. Haven't tested it but do you want me to submit the patch just in case someone finds it useful? Thanks for your efforts, --Rick C.
