[vox-tech] Serial on RedHat 9?

I've got a generic, straight, generic RH 9.0 install on my IBM thinkpad 
T20, and it appears that it doesn't have serial drivers in the kernel 
by default, and I can't even figure out which drivers I should load.

(lsmod doesn't show them... cat /proc/interrupts doesn't show irq 3 or 
4 in use, /proc/ioports missing, etc)

Can anybody point me in the right direction?  Please don't tell me that 
I need to do a kernel build just to get serial ports working?!
