Modem Blues

[maxalbert@juno.com]

To all-- I have a Diamond Supra 288i SP modem in a ISA motherboard, and
my Debian 2.1.8 system won't detect it.  Specifically:

    1) If I run ./0setserial, it says-- Cannot autoconfigure port. 
Device or resource busy.  Done.  
       /dev/ttyS0 at 0x03f8 (irq =4) is a 16450
       /dev/ttyS1 at 0x02f8 (irq =3) is a 16450
       /dev/ttyS2 at 0x03e8 (irq =4) is a 16450
       /dev/ttyS3 at 0x02e8 (irq =3) is a 16450

    2) If I run wvdial (the command- vers. 1.20), it says-- 
        Initializing modem
        Sending ATZ
        Modem not responding

    3) If I run wvdial /etc/wvdial.conf, it says--
      Scanning serial ports for a modem
      Port Scan<*1> Ignoring ttyS0 because /dev/mouse is a link to it. 
      ttyS1<*1>:  AT-- AT-- AT ....  Nothing
      Port Scan<*1>: S2 S3
      Sorry, no modem was detected!

     I told the system during installation that the modem was at ttyS1. 
During the PPP config step, it failed to detect the modem at any port,
even though, at that point, the mouse gpm was not yet installed.

     When the system boots up, it reports-- "Configuring serial ports....
Serial driver vers. 4.13 with no serial options enabled." 

  Anybody got any ideas?  'Cause I'm stumped. -- Max Albert
