Hmmm, please try again with "FLOW_DATA" set to "FLOW_SOFT". It *might* be
some SunOS'ish weirdness (port not receiving data while DCD is low, *IFF*
hardware flow control is enabled), but I seriously doubt it.

Can you access the modem with a terminal program (cu, minicom) at the
selected port speed? Maybe simply your modem or serial port is broken.
