Well, I can't supply you with any details because my PC isn't on, but
I've successfully used xringd a couple of times in the past under the
exact same circumstances as you, i.e., an external modem on
/dev/ttyS1. The only hint I can offer is to make sure xringd is the
first piece of software that accesses that serial port. Don't run
anything else that accesses the port before starting xringd.

You don't have any trouble using other software on ttyS1? Such as
seyon, or minicom?
