Modem on irq 5



hi,

I configured my modem to work with IRQ 5 instead of IRQ 4 on COM3,
this give me the option to work simoltany on all serial lines (1-mouse,
2-1st modem, 3-2nd modem) under M$-WINDOW$.
BUT under linux the boot said : "tty02 at 0x3e8 (irq = 4) is a 16450"
and this just doesn't work.

How can I tell the kernal that 0x3e8 is IRQ 5 not 4 ? any ideas ?

TIA,
