[hcflinux] Gentoo Linux 2.4.20

[Bertrik Sikken]

I'm no expert, but maybe you need a kernel with devfs support.
That should automatically trigger loading of the kernel module.

You could try to manually load the kernel module and then see
if something happens if you access /dev/modem or /dev/ttySH0.
