Your modem should be on the IRQ for the serial port its on, shouldn't
it? That would be IRQ 4 (COM1) or IRQ 3 (COM2).
I would, however, like to add a note of caution on using Windows IRQ
tables to set up hardware for Linux.
Windows does naughty things and is more lax and permissive. In my
person
If you go to the Control Panel in windoze, you can do one of two things.
click on the device manager tab, select View devices by type, then click on
your modem, select properties, from the popup that appears, select the
Resources tab, it should have all I/O info and IRQ info for you there.

There is an older MS hardware information utility called MSD that you can
run in DOS mode to find the answer to your question about IRQs. I *think*
you can find it under the "other" directory on WIN95 cd-rom. I have it
here, and can email it to you if you'd like.

If it's yours, why not post it to a webpage & suggest Debs put up a link to

Thanks Norma,
I've had Red Hat 6 on my machine at home for a few months, and still haven't
got my modem working :-(
My investigations, which have been conducted at a less than leisurely rate
