Howdy! 

First: I'm trying to get my Palmtop (HP680- Jornada) to dial into my system.
My system is a Debian 2.1 machine with an internal Zoom modem jumpered for 
com3. Although the system has com1/com2 configured, there are no devices on
them.

There are two problems. 

First, I seem to have problems getting /dev/ttyS3 to recognize the modem in
the first place. I use the following command to set up the port:

/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS3 port 0x03e8 irq 4

Seems simple enough, but a review of /proc/ioports shows nothing:

# more ioports 
0000-001f : dma1
0020-003f : pic1
0040-005f : timer
0060-006f : keyboard
0080-008f : dma page reg
00a0-00bf : pic2
00c0-00df : dma2
00f0-00ff : npu
01f0-01f7 : ide0
0378-037f : lp
03c0-03df : vga+
03f0-03f5 : floppy
03f6-03f6 : ide0
03f7-03f7 : floppy DIR
1000-101f : eth0
1400-147f : eth1

This isn't always true. sometimes, after dinking around with various port 
settings, it'll show up, but it is unreproducable. I double-checked my 
settings, comparing them to the jumpers on the card, and they are the same.
(The fact that I sometiems get it working with these values is proof)

---

Second problem. When I do get the modem working, the WinCE palmtop connects, 
tried to negotiate password, then disconnects without a reason. There is no
useful information in the mgetty docs. I followed the win95 documentation that
was provided with mgetty. 

Any ideas would be appreciated, since I'm going on a trip in two days, and it
would be nice to be able to check email. 

Also, if responses could be CCed to my email, it'd be appreciated, since I 
don't know yet if I'm successfully reading the mailing list.
