I long ago gave up on getting the built-in serial port to work since it's apparently powered off and I have no way to boot DOS or Windows on it (I understand that'd be required to apply power to the built-in serial port). But I thought I stood a chance of getting a PC Card modem (with on-board serial port) to work. I tried a Dell-branded 3Com 3C562D/3C563D card. The serial port is recognized by pccardd upon insertion. But the machine hangs as soon as I do a "tip cuaa1c". I believe that both the IRDA and built-in serial port are in some funny state since they show up as sio0 and sio1, but both complain "configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs" I have tried many different kernel configs and different IRQ settings in /etc/pccard.conf to no avail. I've had the PC Card show up on sio0, sio1, sio3, and sio4 at different times, but the symptoms are the same: as soon as I touch a serial port with tip, the machine hangs. I beginning to think that all serial I/O on this ThinkPad is jinxed. All suggestions and insight would be appreciated.
