No, I took the modem out completely, shutdown and restarted cold. I checked /var/log/messages and the dmesg log, but there were no entries with irq 3 except the sio1 device, which as I understand is as it should be. The boot messages display: sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq on isa sio1: type 16550A The AT commands still exhibit the same behavior, where I have to press the enter key to display the modem return codes one byte at a time to screen. Any additional help is greatly appreciated!
