Hi all, I need to get some troubleshooting tips for finding out what is causing my serial port not to function in Sarge.
If I plug a modem in, boot off an old DOS 6.22 floppy, and run Modem Dr, it verifies that it can communicate successfully with the modem with not one single error. However, if I boot into Sarge, and try to talk to it with Minicom, it always stays offline and I never receive any responses from the modem. I need to get this functioning so I can get my UPS running as this is my mail server which runs 24x7. I have tried purging and reinstalling setserial, but this didn't help. I'm running a custom 2.4.27 kernel and have also tried the standard 2.4.27 and 2.6.8.1 kernels with the same results. As far as hardware goes, it's a Via EPIA V10000 mainboard and the UPS I'm trying to communicate with is a Sola 330, which used to work fine on my old mail server with the same cable and same software (NUT). The modem is a Spirit 33.6K. What else can I do to narrow down what's interfering with the serial port? Any tips would be very greatly appreciated.
