Let's guess, your modem doesn't have a 'real' 16550 on it, but instead one of those _STUPID_ UART emulations. In the sioproble() function, uncomment all the changes you made (that's not the solution). At each of the EXTRA DELAY comments, insert a line reading DELAY(5000); This may help your bogus modem to catch up. The real solution is to sell it to some Windows-using sucker and buy a real modem. > Eric Eiseman -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] "wherever you go, there you are" - Buckaroo Banzai [[
