Hello !

I am trying to connect a modem (28.800 bps Hayes compatible) to my FreeBSD machine in order to gain
access to it via modem. When I connect using the modem, the machine shows the login and password
prompt, but when I key in the login and password the terminal emulator I use shows me a lot of
garbage ( I key in  my login for example 'antonio', and the terminal shows 'antosdfsogsrwwe' ). The
console of the FreeBSD Machine show the next message  :

        bemar/kernel : sio0 : xxx more interrupt-level overflows (total yyy)

being xxx and yyy different numbers each time. Please, help me !!, (The same message appears when I 
try to connect a mouse and use them under X-Windows)
