Ian,
I'm getting these errors in 2.1.5 but I have no idea what is causing them,
I wouldn't think that your serial port and interupt errors would have any
thing to do with your sio[0-3] ports? But really I couln't pin point the
problem. When you see this again though will you write what type of machine
you have, and also your modem type. Thanks.
