Drifting /dev/ttyS3 IRQ

["Jonathan D. Proulx" <jon@osfn.org>]

Hi,

/dev/ttyS3 is my modem.  The hardware is jumpered for IRQ 5.
I added the following line to /etc/rc.boot/0setserial:

${SETSERIAL} -b /dev/ttyS3 irq 5 port 0x2E8 skip_test autoconfig ${STD_FLAGS}

The problem is the irq frequently reverts to 3.  This happens after
closing my dial up connection (although not always).  Also, starting X
almost always closes my dialup connection (I don't know if this is
related)

Any thoughts???

TIA,
Jon
