Very Computer

Hey,

I have a 3Com modem that I need to set up in RH7.  I had it working
BEAUTIFULLY in RH6.2...which I also had to get a little newsgroup help in
setting up.  But I have since forgotten how the freak I did it.  It's the
5610 model...wonderful *hardware* modem.  I remember that I had to first
enter a command to find out which PCI slot it was in and the IRQ, then I
think use the setserial command...so how's that work again?

I am not sure if cat /proc/ioport will show the IRQ.
If it does, it will be listed as a serial port.

Also, you can check the BIOS screen that shows up
when you turn the computer on, just before you get to
the Linux boot prompt.  That lists serial ports.

Then, man setserial
lists instructions for setserial:
Something like:
setserial /dev/ttyS4 irq 9 port 0x2e8 auto_config
