You may be right about the mouse interferring with the connection. I
will try that out later tonight. But I'm not so sure about a
conflict between the mouse and /dev/ttyS0. I know that I have seen
that device identified as the mouse in some literature. However,
none of the other ttyS? work as well. /dev/ttyS0 is the only one
that actually makes my modem dial. This could be because I am
running Debian on Macintosh 7500 PowerPC with 2 serial ports, one for
the printer and the other for the modem.
Thanks for the advice,
