Andrew,
I guess you missed my point. If Curt has an internal modem set for Com3, IRQ 5. It has nothing to do with the bios in the PC weather linux will see the modem when you use the device /dev/ttyS2. I'm pretty sure /dev/ttyS2 is looking at the same I/O location but it is looking on IRQ 4, not IRQ 5.
If they are using com3 then IRQ 3 and IRQ 4 are already in use; to use the other com ports they will have to use a different IRQ. To do this you need to use setserial to change the IRQ number. -- Andrew L.
