Mi da' has one of these monstrosities (on a cheapie dell) and I am trying to get the thing to run from a few hundred miles away... I gave him a copy of the beta files mentioned on this list a while back but the rpms don't work. I guess they have to be compiled special for his kernel (duh, more brain juice for Anton please...). The problem is that he needs to have the kernel sources installed I guess, and though he doesn't mind me giving him instructions over the phone, I am not very good at this! So if there is any very kind soul out there with the kernel source installed running the standard distro kernel for 9.1 (I no longer have the disks ;-(, or a machine running it...) who would be gracious enough to build a copy of it... it would save me a lot of hair and is far more likely to get dad positive about linux (he is a bit paranoid so I have made great strides ;-)) if I can get this running quick - so he has no reason to boot to doze at all.
I think the files are still available at the original download link posted to this list:
http://dominia.org/djao/hsflinmodem/
if not then there is a copy here: http://antonovich/free.fr/hcfpcimodem-0.99mbsibeta02123100-1.src.i386.rpm and http://antonovich/free.fr/hsflinmodem-5.03.27mbsibeta02122600-1.src.rpm
Thanks heaps!!! Anton
