The system bios is detecting is as IRQ 5 as well. when I cat /proc/interrupts it's not showing that IRQ 5 is in use? This is even after I did a set serial of /dev/ttyS3 to IRQ of 5. This whole internal modem thing is a bit frustrating... -- Shawn "Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do." -- Bruce Lee
