Description Jamel A. Brown 2002-01-23 10:00:01 UTC

      I have recompiled my kernel about 15 times so far. When the system starts it see's my modem on sio0 and then decides to move it to sio4 after recompiling the modem. It does another detect to see where the modem is at. It then see's it on sio0 but this time because I configured it to work on sio4 it decides to move the modem to sio5 and so on and so forth. I have a ActionTec 56k fax pci modem. I need to know whether or not there is a flag page to detail every flag. I have looked at /usr/src/sys/isa/sio.c and seen that they use the flag 0x14 for this modem. Is there something here that I am not checking. Also I Have used the flag 0x20000, is this a good choice for this modem. Bottom line is I just need help to figure this one out.

Have you tried to link the devices in /dev?  Is your modem hardware 
configured or software configured?  If its software, is your bios set to 
PNP or Manual?  I'd love to help you out, but I need more information.

From-To: open->closed

The PR database is for reporting bugs in FreeBSD, not for asking/ 
answering questions.  If you post your question to the  
freebsd-questions@freebsd.org list, someone should be able to help 
you out. 

You'll need to provide some more information than what you've given 
so far, such as the output of dmesg, plus your modified kernel 
configuration.
