My motherboard (on hp-compaq dc7100 PC) has one build in serial port
(IRQ4 per bios)

I have added
Startech.com
I/O CARD
4 port PCI 16550 Serial Card
Model:PCI4s550n

If this makes a difference:
On my previous machine DELL I have installed the same card but only
the 2 Ports card. It is working perfectly on upgraded etch with
ttyS14,15. The difference in installation between my old machine and a
new one is that the card was added after install of the system on
DELL, VS in current system HP I have installed the card before system
was installed.

Sorry, the device is currently in use by another program.
faxserver:/home/xxxx#  lsof | grep ttyS
faxserver:/home/xxx#


And here is a DMESG:

faxserver:/home/xxxx# dmesg |grep ttyS

There is a safety check which I am not sure what it means, but the
busy problems exists on other modems. Example:

If I run a faxaddmodem on ttyS3

......
.......
Probing for best speed to talk to modem:

Unable to deduce DTE-DCE speed; check that you are using the
correct device and/or that your modem is setup properly.  If
all else fails, try the -s option to lock the speed.

faxserver:/home/unique# faxaddmodem
Serial port that modem is connected to [ttyS0]? ttyS3
Sorry, the device is currently in use by another program.
faxserver:/home/xxxx# lsof | grep ttyS
faxserver:/home/xxxx#

Reboot will clear it and I can run a faxaddmodem again but the second
time give the error again.
Is there an issue here with assignment of ttyS? or
Thanks,
Lucas
