    I would try simply using /etc/getty for spawning the login to the
modem. I beleive that uugetty is only required when you have direct
connects, etc. I'm using 3.0e here with several modems and use ttyM0x
without any problems. Make sure a "ps -ef" shows a getty running on each
of the ports you have enabled in /etc/inittab.
