Please send the output of lspci -vv, this message (12b9,1008,12b9,00d3) and the manufacturer and name of serial board or modem board to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ttyS04 at port 0xd000 (irq = 19) is a 16550A I dont know how else to explain the "Redundant entry in serial pci_table". Does anyone know where that is or how to remove it? I do know that I removed the only entry of ttsS4 that I know about. > > > I just rm /dev/ttyS3 & ttyS4. > > Then I confirmed that they both gone.

Also will not respond to echo "ATDT<phone #> > /dev/ttyS4 which it should. more specifically the screen does this: Blackgold: / # echo "ATDT3633070" > /dev/ttyS4 Blackgold: / # Also there is no sound from the modem and there always is when it dials this number untill connection is confirmed. I blame this action on "Redundant entry "(etc.). I suspect the pci-table is in the kernel but have no confidence that reinstalling everything would alter the results.

The copy that was attached was the one where I had disabled ttyS0 & 1. I am reattaching the correct current copy. Regards; Hoyt
