My setup now works with the latest PCMCIA. My serial ports are enabled in the BIOS, setserial has been purged and I recompiled PCMCIA using the pcmcia-source package. The kernel detects a serial port as ttyS0, irq 3, but card services takes over this port somehow when I insert the modem card. IRQ 3 doesn't show up in /proc/interrupts, which seems strange, but it works. Don't know if this helps you or not. I sounds like you may have tried what I've got already. Chris -- Christopher S.
