[newbie] Compaq VSC 56K and Linux

2000-05-05 Thread Shamuu



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 theltmodem module to no 
avail. Ive also used setserial until im blue in the face.

Im convinced thismandrake 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??

Have you tried playing with the FLOW CONTROL in the modem setup?
Just a thought
