Geoffrey:
I have a U.S. Robotics Sportster 28.8 internal modem on Com4..
IRQ 2 (well it's re-directed to IRQ 9 actually)... and a generic S3
Trio64 video card with 2 MB ram... and no problems... if the modem
doesn't work... try typing this at a prompt...
setserial /dev/cua3 irq #
where # represents the IRQ that the modem uses... i'm not sure
how to save this setting BTW...
Pat.
