[ltp] Problems with PCMCIA Modem in TP760CD

[Jake Holmen]

Hi everyone.  Here I stand humbly chastised for my disgruntled comments on 
the lack of ease etc for Linux.   I read the excellent "thesis" written 
here:
http://www.io.com/~mccoy/beginning_print.html

ANYWAY - here's my problems...

The other day, I was using my modem, and my KDE session got hung.  I swapped 
out to another terminal session, and killed the x server process, and 
anything else I could see.  I ended up killing everything I think!  But 
after I rebooted, the machine cleaned itself mostly up, except for the 
following two problems: serial_cs and register_serial()

I get the following errors when I boot now, and i can't detect my modem from 
KDE or anywhere else...

Nov 18 19:04:35 localhost kernel: register_serial(): autoconfig failed
Nov 18 19:04:35 localhost kernel: serial_cs: register_serial() at 0x03f8, 
irq3 failed


Any help would be appreciated.

BTW - I have been using Star Office 5.1 and it is pretty good!  (slow on a 
P90 with lots of graphics though!)

CHeers
