Errr, not necessarily. It detected a serial device at that port/IRQ location, which could also just be a built-in serial port or a serial card or whatever. >> sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 >> sio1: not found at 0x2f8 >> > This means there is no COM2 detected. Weird error message. I've never seen anything like that before. >> Does this mean i have a winmodem and wont be able to use it with >> FREEBSD.? You have no idea what kind of modem you have? The original poster reaaly needs to provide more info. What type of modem? Internal/external? At what port/IRQ is it *supposed* to be detected? Have you tried setting up your /etc/ppp at all, and if so, what do your configuration files look like. We can't just pull answers out of thin air without something to go on here. -- Conrad Sabatier "Every man has his price. Mine is $3.95."
