Hi everyone, I installed Suse 8.2 on my AMD Duron machine and it works like a charm except.. you guessed it. I have a Lucent modem. The chipset is Agere SV92p.I tried installing the driver that I found on www.heby.de but it didn't work. I have gotten the modem to work with Mandrake, so I'm thinking there is a way to get it working in Suse too. I'm a relative newbie to Linux so I was wondering if anyone has simple instructions for me to get this modem working on my machine. Thanks. <snip>
This is not helpful but instead of configuring Winmodems a visit to the a local secondhand computer store to purchase an "old" hardware modem is highly recommended.
Mind, on the new Toshiba laptop, there are no serial modems :(
Just my 2p worth........
LW999 My Creatix modem was not recognised by SuSE 8.1. The Creatix websire does have drivers, but for Linux it referred to Intel, the manufacturer of the chipset. I installed the Intel driver for Linux using the Intel instructions, and it works like a charm. It even outperfomed the Creatix driver on WindowsXP. I have now a new driver installed for WinXP so it is now on par with Linux.
Does Lucent has a driver for you? Or perhaps Agere?
