Bug#285017: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686: upgrading from v2 to v6 slows down my modem: upgrading from v2 to v6 slows down my modem

[Joan Andersen og Jesper Gertz <2xj@mail.dk>]

Hi

I have the same problem:

  
Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686
Version: 2.4.27-6
OS version: Testing

My connection tops off at 1K.
My external 56K modem is connected to ttys0.
It doesn't matter if I disable acpi in kernel.
My modem connects to my ISP at about 40K.
It doesn't matter if I disable discover version 2.0.6-3.

When I boot Debian into my other kernel (bf2.4 from Stable),
the problem dissapears.
