Okay... here's the nitty gritty... (a LOT of it) I do have ppp 2.4.1-4, so
that's good. I took the output from a lot of things and have them listed
below. There's one thing that seems to strike me, and that is when I had
kernel 2.2.18pre21, I had more serial ports in /dev/ than ttyS3. Now I just
have the 4 basic devices, 0-3. The output of using setserial on a
nonexistant device is also below. I'm wondering, do I need to make a new
device in /dev? (ie, ttyS4?) If so, how do I go about doing it? Also,
another thing that strikes me as strange is that even though it lists devices
00, 01, and 04 (in the dmesg output below), all of those also come up as
invalid if I try to adjust them via setserial.
So if someone can make sense of all this gibberish and help me get this dang
modem recognized by pppconfig or wvdial or SOMETHING, then I would greatly
appreciate it. If there is any further output from anything that is needed
to help out, please don't hesitate to let me know.
