Being a pack-rat has occasional advantages. Digging through my
collection of old computer peripherals, I discovered a PCI modem. This
was proabably from my 1999 Dell which died on me last summer. I stuck
it in, and it works. I had a bit of a scare about it not showing up,
but it was my fault. In building the kernel (make menuconfig) you have
to remember...
Device Drivers --->
Character devices --->
Serial drivers --->
<*> 8250/16550 and compatible serial support
(5) Maximum number of 8250/16550 serial ports
(5) Number of 8250/16550 serial ports to register at runtime
I'm still interested in the Multitech USB unit for if/when I get a
laptop.
