The com ports are called ttyS0 is com one...ttyS1 is com
two...ttyS2 is com three...etc like that..
The S is a capitol...s
Run setserial -g /dev/ttyS*
that will list all the info..
pay a bit of attention to IRQ conflicts...I had a USB hub controller
on the same irq as the modem...even with USB disabled in Bios it still
conflicted with the modem giving the ill bred "modem is busy error"
until I was almost convinced I had a winmodem.....I moved the modem
card to another slot and IRQ and now all is well...... don't even
try, to put it together with the mouse.
