FWIW, I have a SupraExpress Plug-N-Pray 28.8 modem that has worked with every version of FBSD since 2.1.5. It might work with older versions of FBSD, but I haven't tried. :-). It worked with both of my mother boards. On my new MB (ASUS P/I P55T2P4) I just had to disable the first on-board serial port in BIOS (since my mouse is plugged into the second and my XFconfig file is looking for the mouse as cuaa1). After disableing the serial port the modem has worked perfectly ever since as cuaa0. On Mon, 24 Mar 1997, Patrick H.K.
