Hi Tom,

I've seen these hangups before on my own boxen and they were invariably
to do with something else talking to the port on which the modem
resides.

The first time this occurred, I had forgotten that I had set up mgetty
in my inittab to listen on ttyS1 (com 2, irq 3) so that I had a serial
console so that I had a way back in during some tests I was running.

The other time, I did a full install of some distribution or other, and
it had been starting diald on boot, confguring for... you guessed it...
ttyS1.

HTH,

Ruairi
