If you do, somewhere in dmesg it should be telling you that your modem was moved to a different port. Below is the out put from my computer: donaldj ==> dmesg |grep "^sio" sio0: <3COM PCI FaxModem> port 0x1490-0x1497 irq 3 at device 10.0 on pci0 sio0: moving to sio4 sio4: type 16550A sio0: <Standard PC COM port> port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on acpi0 sio0: type 16550A sio1: configured irq 3 not in bitmap of probed irqs 0 sio1: port may not be enabled Also, look at /dev for more than cuaa0 donaldj ==> ll /dev | grep cua crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 240, 128 Jan 1 09:55 cuaa0 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 240, 132 Jan 1 09:55 cuaa4 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 239, 160 Jan 1 09:55 cuaia0 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 239, 164 Jan 1 09:55 cuaia4 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 239, 192 Jan 1 09:55 cuala0 crw-rw---- 1 uucp dialer 239, 196 Jan 1 09:55 cuala4 Don -- Donald J.
