Serial Port IRQ woes

Hi

I don't know if this is in the right area - if not, sorry.

I need to get 2 modems working on 1 linux box. (I am using 1.2.13 currently).
I also need my mouse.

I have a P100 with built in Com ports, and 1 internal modem.
Mouse - /dev/cua0  = IRQ 4
Modem 1 = External = /dev/cua1 = IRQ 3
Modem 2 = Internal = /dev/cua3 = IRQ ?3


The problem is getting the internal modem recognized on IRQ 5 or 7 - I have 
edited rc.serial, and changed the jumpers on the modem, but Linux refuses to 
talk to the modem on anything other then IRQ 3 (though I did not try as 
the mouse needs it).

The modem is a US Robotics 33k6 internal (only fbeing used at 28k8)

Any ideas to get Linux to recognize the modem ??

Thanks,
David (davidgo@kcbbs.gen.nz)
