On my FreeBSD 2.2.7 machine I have an internal 56K modem (Viva CommCenter). This works fine on COM3 on Windows, but will not work on FreeBSD. The settings were changed in the kernel to the proper irq settings (according to the Windows settings) yet in the boot sequence the message would indicate that "irq 11 not in bitmap of probed irqs" and "sio2 not found." Looking at the information on the FreeBSD site, I tried enabling PnP detection by adding "controller pnp0." Following this, it would find the modem, and gave the following information: CSN 1 Vendor ID CPI4173 0x7341090e Serial 0xd0959b5 CSN 1 disabled. I added the new id number and a description string to the /sys/i386/isa/sio.c file, and I also changed the "sio2" line in the kernel so that it would not take the PnP card's IRQ. The FreeBSD site also stated that I may have to add a manual configuration command in the boot-time configuration like: pnp 1 0 enable os irq0 3 drq0 0 port0 0x2f8 However, I can not seem to get anything to work, and FreeBSD does not communicate with my modem. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks, Patrick Lutz kellutz@telusplanet.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
