If the speed isn't being set down, then somehow interrupts are being turned off for a very long time, possibly by another device driver, or possibly you have bad hardware. If interrupts were off, wouldn't I see other things like mice freezes or X-repaint problems? I'd go with either of these actually. Any suggestions for debug methods? (for instance, would swapping the sio used for mouse and modem make sense? or do they use common paths in the motherboard such that a fault in serial is going to kill both of them..) I would *love* this to turn out to be hardware! cheers -George -- George Michaelson | DSTC Pty Ltd Email: ggm@dstc.edu.au | University of Qld 4072 Phone: +61 7 3365 4310 | Australia Fax: +61 7 3365 4311 | http://www.dstc.edu.au To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
