I have a little problem:

Since I installed NetBSD 1.3 (actually, it was the ALPHA immediately
before the 1.3 release, I'll be going to 1.3 shortly) I noticed that my
modem lights have been on more often. There is never a time that the
receive data or send data light is not on. They usually switch back and
forth, RD SD RD SD RD SD etc...

And I only noticed this change since upgrading to 1.3. It is quite
strange...everything else works fine :)

Thanks,
