Just a SWAG on my part - I ran into a similar problem getting a modem to
work awhile back.

My solution was to add a line at the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.local with
setserial in it (RH 6.2).

setserial /dev/ttyS2 IRQ=5

or something like that, I don't think I've got the syntax right there -
the man page for setserial is quite helpful. I've since upgraded to RH
7.0 and a new box - don't have that config prob anymore.

When the system booted and my modem on /dev/ttyS2 (Dos' com3) was using
a non-standard IRQ, the system found the I/O addy, but couldn't find the
IRQ. Running setserial at every boot fixed that.

Maybe for you too?

Good luck!
