Does it work if you don't have your Xircom card inserted? > eth0: Promiscuous mode enabled. > device eth0 entered promiscuous mode This worries me. Why is your network card going into promiscuous mode? > Based on what is up at the top of all that, it seems that the settings are > right.

I think /proc/tty/driver/serial is just reporting standard io/irq's for those serial ports - doesn't mean that irq 4 is actually used. Do 'cat /proc/interrupts' to check irq 4. Maybe setserial can be used to fix this, I'm not really sure. Also, you could try changing your com port to 'com2' in the bios (ie. io=0x2f8, irq=3, /dev/ttyS01), assuming that irq 3 isn't already used. Matthew
