i haven't been following the thread ... but perhaps you should try
changing the irq.  either by an on board jumper or 'setserial' ... i
remember having a lot of trouble with one of my modems and changing the
irq from 3 to 4 or something remedied all my problems.

also, i'm assuming you have .. but give minicom a whirl.  see if you can
open the port to send commands to the modem or whatever.
