Aren't you confusing DMA channels with hardware interrupts (IRQs)? I've
never heard of a modem using DMA.

switching jumpers because I also run Win98, but if it is the only way I'm
willing to give it a try.

 While I have no experience with this modem, their web page indicates
that this is a "standard" modem...

  

 Try setting the modem to COM2 and disabling any on board Com2 ports.

  

 Use the GUI tools to set the modem link to /dev/cua1 and you should be
all set.

I have a NCI-USA 56kifxspA Int Modem, and was wondering if anyone knows
whether or not it will work with Linux.  I have been trying everything to
get it to work, but I am only a few weeks old to this Linux stuff and
could really use some suggestions.  I'm running Red Hat 5.1 on a Pentium
machine.  Any suggestions?
