I compiled a linux gentoo system and kernel 2.6.9 from scratch on my notebook 
connected to an external modem. Now it happens that while with kernel 2.4 I 
could see /dev/ttyS0 in /var/log/messages during the boot, with the new 2.6 
kernel I can't see anything of the kind ..and of course, the modem too 
doesn't work.  

The config file of the kernel has the following setting:

CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=y
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CS is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_ACPI is not set
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=4
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED is not set

What could it be the problem?

Ciao

Vittorio
