Okay.... before we all scream winmodem
It works with redhat linux 5.1 as /dev/modem ..
ttyS1 as com2 irq 3 so its not a linux incompatibility issue.
in kppp .. modem query ttyS0 shows
modem ready but gives no ATI responses.
ttyS1 and others show ... sorry modem
busy
the modem is a variant Lucent modem made for
Compaq, so Ive found, installed, and tried the ltmodem module to no
avail. Ive also used setserial until im blue in the face.
Im convinced this mandrake package does not
even "see" the modem. the kudzu module (hardware dectection) gets a
segment fault on bootup, and i have re-installed that package as well with no
luck
Thinking I had a bad distribution, i bought another
from a different source and still the same things are happening. The
remainder of the system seems to work very well.
My old redhat 5.1 package has several other
problems but the modem and internet connection does work.
So im kinda damned if I do, damned if i
don't.
Any ideas people??
