FAS and Everex 2400 internal modem

[Jonathan R. Senning]

I just got FAS and got it running on my system, (ESIX System 5.3.2 Rev. C).
It appears to work just fine with the COM ports on my I/O board which uses
82450 chips (this is not a multiport board, just a vanilla AT I/O board).

However, it does not work with my Everex Evercom 2400 internal modem.
An error code of '6' is returned for COM1 (the modem) during the boot
process, while '*'s are returned for COM2 and COM3.  I looked at the source
and found that error code 6 indicates a problem with the modem control stuff.

The only 40 pin chip on the modem that looks like the 82450's on the I/O
card is labeled

			10464-15
			Mexico FI
			8717   2067

and has a Rockwell logo on it.  Is this a UART that is compatible with
the 82450 or 16450/16550?

For the time being I am using the regular asy driver for COM1 and FAS for
COM2 and COM3.

Has anyone seen this sort of thing before?  Any ideas?
