Check /var/log/messages*, you should see the serial ports recognized in the boot messages. [root@enigma root]# grep tty /var/log/messages* /var/log/messages.3:Dec 10 23:43:16 enigma kernel: ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A /var/log/messages.3:Dec 10 23:43:16 enigma kernel: ttyS01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A Check out: http://www.redhat.com/mirrors/LDP/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO.html as well.
