Hi

I recently installed FreeBSD 5.2.1 on Compaq Armada 1700. I have a=20
pcmcia modem (Psion gold card WAN Global PC Card 56 k+ Fax Combine iT).

1. Is this not a winmodem?
2. How do I make it work? I'm not sure if it is detected or not. I get=20
the lines

sio4: <Psion Gold Card 56K Combine iT> at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 11=20
function 0 config 5 on pccard0
sio4: type 16550A
sio4: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode

from the dmesg. Does it mean the card is properly detected.

3. If it is detected, do I need to start a daemon for it?
4. What is the recommended way to check that the card is working

thanks
anton
