[hsflinux] my hayes usb does not always work on boot

[Mike Russo]

You should also check out /var/log/messages for any USB related log
messages.  I was having a similar problem, and looking up the error
messages on the internet (specifically the linux-usb.org FAQ) I found
that turning ACPI off (through the use of the acpi=off kernel boot
parameter) made the modem work flawlessly.
