Now let me be fair. The connection *is* stable and it works for hours with no downtime. The delicate point is that pppd seems not to be able to disconnect the modem when it is killed. The modem LED keeps flashing as if connected and if I subsequently tip /dev/term/0, I get those PPP-like strange characters }}]234aaf}}}2324 and so on. So I suppose it cannot disconnect (and as I said before, cannot detach from the drivers) until I reboot the machine. Trying to eject the card is out of question because of the panic described in a previous post. But it is mostly ok for now. I will try to get some Sun Update Connection patches and test how it goes. -- Douglas This message posted from opensolaris.org
