Markus,

It sounds like your device is not recognized.  Do you see the "sio2 at
...." message when your kernel boots?  You can run "dmesg" if you
forgot what the kernel said.

If it is not found, there are a few possibilities, the most probable
being wrong irq.  The default kernels want sio2 at irq5.
