Sorry for yet another internal modem problem. In my defense
I've spent the last two days reading FAQs and searching the
archives but to no avail.  I also apologize in advance for
any bad formatting of this email as I was forced to send it
through the web interface of my ISP.

I've got an Armada E500 laptop (nice computer, really) with
a Compaq 56K (V.90) MiniPCI modem.  I'm quite sure that it's
NOT a winmodem as this modem runs successfully under WinNT 4.0
and Win2000 (which reports the modem on COM2, BTW).  I don't
think it's a PnP modem as pnpinfo reports...

	Checking for Plug-n-Play devices...
	No Plug-n-Play devices were found

When booting 4.0-RELEASE, I see observe...
	sio0: at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on isa0
	sio0: type 16550A
	sio1: configured irq 11 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0

I choose irq 11 in my custom kernel because that's what
Win2000 reported it was running on.  When I attempt to
access the modem via user PPP I get...
	Warning: deflink: /dev/cuaa1: Bad file descriptor

It seems to me that FreeBSD is not recognizing the modem on
cuaa1.  Can anyone shed some light on this and help me out
please?

Many TIA,
Doug Poland (dpoland@execpc.com|doug@polands.org)
