I think it means that BIOS is not configured for a com port on IRQ 5. > 2) Do I need to enable sio2 and sio3 in my kernel config? Don't see why. But you probably need to go into BIOS and set up the modem there. I know how to do this on my system, but it's different for every one. Hopefully yours is easier to set up than mine was! I had to put the BIOS configuration utility onto a DOS disk and boot it to do the job. (IBM system.) R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
