RE: [Cooker] Re: winmodem
I need to point out that even though 2.2.15-0.2mdk is a prekernel, my winmodem works fine with it. It stopped working around 2.2.15-0.24mdk, so something was either removed or changed. All I want to know is what was changed/removed so that I might be able to make it work. >> Original Message << On 6/2/00, 9:24:47 AM, "Riyad Kalla" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote regarding RE: [Cooker] Re: winmodem: > How are you using a win modem?

I'm not quite sure I follow you. Here's what I do know: It's a Lucent Soft Modem, I have the ltmodem 568. The modem module/device worked on 2.2.15-0.20mdk, but not on 2.2.15-0.24mdk. It also worked on 2.2.14-15mdk. This is a pre-compiled module, so I can not recompile it. It was compiled on 2.2.12 Red Hat stock, from the documentation. I'm hoping that all I have to do is install another package, maybe something that was separated from the kernel around 2.2.15-0.20mdk?

Any Ideas? > Do you have an adsl modem ? I'm not quite sure I follow you. It is a Lucent modem, of which I have LT568 which enables the modem. It worked without any modifications on 2.2.15-0.20, and when I tried it with 2.2.15-0.24 and after, it dials, then hangs when it is supposed to log into the network. I have double and triple checked the password. I've also noted that it doesn't go back on-hook. This module works with 2.2.14-15, but it didn't work with 2.2.13. It is a compiled module, so I can't recompile it to work. I know I'm in a bad situation, but it's the only thing I have at the moment. Why I don't just stick with 2.2.14: I need the sound modules in 2.2.15 to continue with development on my current project. > > > > -BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK- > > Version: PGP 6.5.1i > > > > mQGiBDkwU5cRBADgvyweD5SBu4cHZtrTgLx47Uq4PRcB3ge4C60JdettIK+JN37p > > EykQtcW7ChOE222WOvwvDNozds2xOFfVE2rf5H1C1qK0v6Bgh7AyGCvAoqp+Ozh4 > > OH4IvNownyrcpenpBrmmym+JFO1zQpbVyuH7zsLTSO0zj0ZBMdvCQfeaMQCg/0nJ > > +JLmNX7ZnNTya5CtgM9OKwcEALWo97SUcxlSOiYZkvTvlquoftbT6eAZ7NwEYr+E > > OZBsF1X34NWHte02fNQgChwoZ++rH1SZMixdfaeEJ2jQusA2ukfafGXpMkObNUzg > > PFOiUHTTpFNxmnb/VdsG8lD6rjzta8TSLYfBB8EOx+lMvWGXPSa4aJRcnNEefndm > > DRjqA/9P/ObGwNjI8PCBBza3c92LbUDqhgfjpUPuyO+Jz5yrHVPQ6Aq40DxVIyoY > > Vrydzq7QPjwNI5Ek8vBhDW5hDJ5ARfhvCnSfC+6xxyljPHOnZKoiIwV/hb5jwTbm > > cUz4Y5DURRxwfw3dIDHLbp53HrqDyNLxRlPlCjauBUByO5nRSbQlRGVlIEouIE1h > > bm4gPGljZWJyZWFrZXJAaW5mb2JsdmQubmV0PokATgQQEQIADgUCOTBTlwQLAwEC > > AhkBAAoJEHPrcxvZd+QCx7QAoOBNy3Qxnm1ZhQ1xhFRas/EcgiuzAKDL9mYA7lrp > > xvMaOu6xL80AvHXJpbkBDQQ5MFOfEAQAwt/73okPQ3NlvzCYPjNJlXo8zt+nEhXW > > ld1IPRc6d881XMSrjRVoo8oBNRXSk8edcjuga+8mRNa9S0+mhvR4OMuz3BuQDWc1 > > Fd98f6gCw3NIWqEvoj7vO640r/xD87qBwC9JIijUovUVNMo6BHWz8NktyY+LvApq > > 9g0k2KYRs2UAAgIEAINF/A1kvY32csd4GFcjbgl7pAALRi4B7OhMHKu3I/8mpK6B > > wRm9SFXFU2yRJnYnlC/SJDoSNkxlzkkzENFMi9PiS+L+ZT69qBQulbEdUqKvTyqj > > nOS7yO55+9Q+JfP5K8feYoV6qOPKP/ks6s4ZgiHZYDsYrJfAUUnXCqlSrXbTiQBG > > BBgRAgAGBQI5MFOfAAoJEHPrcxvZd+QCtowAoMoplQkOu4yVFqKvWF8UvKAm35HJ > > AJ9Z7RjzVFJ//vTdA1XHYr9Zi6gsQg== > > =6kd9 > > -END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK- > > > -- > MandrakeSoft Inchttp://www.mandrakesoft.com > In travel.--Chmouel

[Cooker] Possible Bug
Hello, I have a problem with my modem working on the latest Cooker kernel 2.2.15-9mdk First off, I know it's a win-modem, but I have the module which enables it. The last kernel that I know it worked on was 2.2.15-0.20mdk, I tried with 2.2.15-0.24mdk and it didn't work. Does anyone know if there were any changes that would affect the module between .20 and .24? Is there anything else I may need, such as specific module packages not included in the source or headers? As for errors, I haven't seen anything yet. The modem does dial and attempt to connect, but when it connects, it hangs and freezes kppp. Any Ideas?
