[aclug-L] Newbie's Modem Installtion problem

["ccwoo" <webexplorer@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have checked the log files and got the following message in /var/log/dmesg
:-

I suspect there's a conflict in IRQ since both ttyS00 and ttyS02 are using
the same IRQ. I've set the jumper on the card to use IRQ 5, and also to
reserve IRQ 5 for ISA card in my BIOS setting. But it still didn't work.

I've also checked that my PPP is looking for my modem at /dev/ttyS02,which
is correct.

Anything else that i could do ?

Thanks guys.
