     Hiyas!

I'm having a problem with an internal modem in Freak-2.2.6
and other comports aswell.
The BSD won't detect even a single-one of those ports,
unless they're forced from BIOS to use 3f8 and 3e8 or what
were those addresses. Okay, then comes the problem.
It won't detect my modem since it's a plug&play modem.
It should use it's own comport, COM3, but BSD won't
detect it, no matter what configuration options i use from
BIOS. And if I force the modem over COM1 or 2, the bios
whines about a COMportConfiGurAtiOn failure or
some horses**t like that.
Is there any freebsd releases that would support
internal modems or plug&play devices on ISA BUS?
The funniest thing is that the same kernel found the modem
automatically when it was attached to a  486 with Award BIOS.
Now it's connected to P350 686 with PhoenixBIOS.
Windows98 finds it by default. Win95 won't find it unless
I force the modem to use some Intergalactic IRQ's ...
