I am full of questions tonight.
I am trying to get my modem working. I connected an external 3com 56k modem
to the COM1 port on the back of the PC. In Mandrake, I type the following
command: setserial -g /dev/ttys*
and it returns the following results:
/dev/ttys0: Input/output error
/dev/ttys1: Input/output error
/dev/ttys2: Input/output error
/dev/ttys3: Input/output error
/dev/ttys4: Input/output error
/dev/ttys5: Input/output error
/dev/ttys6: Input/output error
/dev/ttys7: Input/output error
/dev/ttys8: Input/output error
/dev/ttys9: Input/output error
/dev/ttysa: Input/output error
/dev/ttysb: Input/output error
/dev/ttysc: Input/output error
/dev/ttysd: Input/output error
/dev/ttyse: Input/output error
/dev/ttysf: Input/output error
When I try to get it to dial, it does nothing. I see no lights flashing on
the modem, so I get the feeling that it can not see the serial port
correctly. When I first installed Linux, I was using a serial mouse, whereas
now I am using a PS/2 mouse. I saw a lot of archives saying to use KPPP, but
I cant find it installed anywhere.
I also did this, with the following results:
[root@mandrake btrotter]# cd /proc/tty/driver
[root@mandrake driver]# more serial
serinfo:1.0 driver:4.27
0: uart:16550A port:3F8 irq:4 tx:0 rx:0
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
