Look for a slot thats overloaded, or more than one card sharing an interrupt. You might want to move the cards around if so.

Re: [newbie] PCI
I had a similar problem with an ethernet card, that in windows was irq 5 but in linux this irq was occuped for other peripheric; the problem was solved when I try a modprobe using memory address of the card but not irq (it was a ethernet card compatible with ne2000 -module ne- and that used the memory address 0x300. I typed: modprobe ne io=0x300 Then linux autodetected the ethenet-card and used the irq 10; the card start to run. Try something similar using the module of your sound card and the memory address from windows El Mié 02 May 2001 17:13, escribiste: I have a PCI soundcard which is trying to use irq 11, (if I'm not mistaken) The problem is my video card is taking irq 11.

RE: [newbie] PCI Hardware Modem Says Sorry, the modem is busy.
Hi, It appears that your USB and your modem are trying to use the same IRQ (9). I had a similar problem myself. If you aren't using and USB devices or don't plan on it, then just shut the USB service off so that it won't load. Reboot the computer and then try to dial out and see what you get. Make sure to use the setserial /dev/ttyS2 irq 9 port 0x1040 . I plan on figuring out someday how to get my USB working on a different IRQ, but since I don't use it for anything, then I don't see why I should worry about it. :-) I've got too many irons in the fire already.

Hi all, PROBLEM SUMMARY: I installed Mandrake Linux 7.1 two weeks ago and I'm still trying to get my modem to work. Each time I try to use it I receive the message "Sorry, modem is busy." when trying to use it from KPPP. PROBLEM DETAIL: Below I have included the output of numerous commands in order to provide as much information as possible. (Sorry for the long length). I've tried the setserial command to specify the IRQ and IO address of the modem but it still does not work. Maybe someone can see something I'm missing. Its seems to me my modem should work? I've searched archives and HOW To and the web and can't find anything that works. I'm running a dual boot system and the modem works fine under Windows 98. My sound card is a "TBS (Turtle Beach System) Montego II Sound Blaster Pro Emulation". My system is a "DELL XPS T600" 600 Mhz w/256RAM. My video card is a Voodoo 3500 TV card. I have an internal PCI hardware controller based modem. Its Vendor id is 12b9 and Device id=1008 which rule of thumb says is a hardware controller based modem. My modem is a: U.S. Robotics 56K INT Voice PCI Windows reports its IRQ is 09 and I/O: 1040h-1047h and is installed on COM5. I've had great difficulty identifying its real Model number. I received it with my DELL XPS T600 system and specifically ordered this modem from Dell to replace the default winmodem that normally ships with their systems. Anyway, the HTML doc for my modem on its CD-Rom says it's 3COM part number is "3CP3298-DEL". Dell Support said it's a "3Com Hawk MODEM, a PCI Controller-based Fax, Voice and V.90 Data MODEM. The Dell part number is 4306P." Here is the output of "AT" commands I used to query the modem to find what model number it would report. Several numbers it reported were "5601" and "USR3070". If someone knows which number is the "real" model number, please let me know.

Re: [newbie] PCI Modem for Joe and Sfactor
The file that you want to edit is the rc.local file In 7.1 it looks like a mini TV. Right click on it and choose edit then add the 2 setserial lines to the bottom. By doing this the 2 lines are used each time you boot otherwise you would have to manually enter them each time which would be a drag. You cannot connect to the internet using Netscape or any other program. You have to connect to the internet first and then launch Netscape You should also verify in Kppp that you correctly entered the IP addresses for your ISP. As for disabling "logging on to network" I am not sure what you mean by disabling. If you do not want to see it after you click connect, click hide and the box will disapear. The Network that it is refering to is your ISP.

RE: [newbie] PCI Modem for Joe and Sfactor
Charles, I'm the other guy who was asking about getting a PCI modem to be unbusy. I'm only writing here because another guy said he still gets the busy signal even after doing what you suggested (sure do appreciate you turning me onto "setserial"). I think my problem, and possible that of the other guy, is that the modem and sound system are sharing the same interrupt. This makes no sense at all to me as both work fine under Windows. In spite of this, when I query the devices in Windows I'm told that my modem isn't using an IRQ at all but that the sound card is on IRQ9. Within Linux it tells me that both are using IRQ9. There is something basic about PCI setups that I don't understand I guess so I'm scratching my head, saying "Hm..." a lot and largely getting nowhere. To make matters worse, Windows just decided to scramble my FAT table so I'm struggling with it. I guess that was just a reminder why I want to move to Linux (grin). Thanks for your responses.

Re: [newbie] PCI Modem for Joe and Sfactor
Even though I am also a newbie, I can try helping you. What modem do you have? there is a page, mirrored by many, that has a huge listing of modems ( can not think of it offhand, do a google search for linux compatible modems or somethign ) and their compatibility with linux. If it really isn't a winmodem, then try going to the kppp tutorial on mandrake's website. They have a step by step process of setting up your isp account and modem. If you can't remember what it said when you switch back to linux, save each page of the tutorial to your c drive ( as a .htm file ). its a little annoying, but there should be an icon on linux desktop saying dos hd*, where star represents the number of your c drive, you can load the tutorial pages you saved from there. If you don't feel like saving / remembering the tutorial, you just fiddle with the options, you can eventually figure it out. make sure you followed charles' advise exactly. If you STILL can't figure it out, wait for a response from someone on this list, and if you still want an answer, post on linux usenet. hope i helped - Original Message - From: Chris Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 26, 2000 2:52 PM Subject: Re: [newbie] PCI Modem for Joe and Sfactor Ok.

Any help is well come Just because it does not SAY it's a "WinModem" does not mean that it is not a windows-only modem. I would do two things: 1) Look at the documentation. If it says it requires a Pentium or better processor and requires Windows 95+, you've got a windows-only modem. 2) Check out the WinModem list at the following site: http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html John

Re: [newbie] PCI Modem Configuration
Here's a pretty good rule of thumb for modems. If it doesn't have jumpers or switches to configure it, chances are it won't work under Linux.

It has full legacy support under DOS, but I believe that a DOS helper program is necessary to enable that. Has anyone got one of these working in linux, or even a similar PCI card? If you first boot into DOS, then use LOADLIN to boot Linux, you'll probably be able to get the card to work in SB-compatibility mode. This will allow the DOS helper stuff to get loaded and put the card into the right mode. It worked for me a while back when I was fighting a Diamond Sonic Impact S70 card.

Hello, I've recently installed Mandrake on my personal "workstation" (and have since went on a Mandrake install-fest at my office :)). But now I've come across a (major, for me) problem. I cannot seem to get my PCI modem working. It's an Aztech MDP3858SP-U modem. I don think it's a winmodem but I could be wrong. It works in NT (which is what I'm migrating from and forced to use right now) and DOS. I have searched and read dozens of howtos/help/infobase/newgroup archives etc. to no avail. setserial does not seem to work either. Linux does seem to "see" the board, however, from KDE's control centre's "Information - PCI" page...it's listed as serial controller using irq10. (this is correct even in windows) but not much else. I've tried to assign ttyS2 this irq (using setserial) and even got the I/O address from windows settings right. kppp still isn't able to query the modem at all. All ATx commands generate blanks. I cannot believe this apparently simple problem (of setting up a PCI mdem) does not have a proper howto for it...even a mini one. If I get this working, I'm going to write one up. If one already exists, could someone please point me in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated (since it would mean the end of NT as far as I'm concerned :)).
