Dear fellow SuSE fans (sometimes a little bit victim!!)
I have a Dynalink 1456 intern PCI modem, a conexant SoftK56 data, fax, TAMPCI modem with Vendor ID = 127a and Device ID = 1025 on my computer. After installation of SuSE 9.0 and configuration of Kinternet, as given below, and configuration of the modem with Yast as ppp0 I could not make contact with my provider. No way!
I tried to install hsfmodem-6.03.00lnxt03091800free_k2.4.20_4GB-1suse-i586 from Linuxant but got the message "existing driver modules found under /lib/modules/2.4.21-99-athlon/misc/" where I found 8 files hsf*.0
In information center I got the following: PCI 00:07.0 Communication controller Rockwell International HCF 56k Data/Fax?Voice/Spkp Subsystem: Rockwell International HCF 56k Data/Fax?Voice/Spkp(w/Handset)Modem Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 10 Memory at dffe0000 (32-bit, non prefetchable)(size = 64k) I/O ports at c 400 [size = 8] Capabilities: <availble only to root>
Meanwhile a understood from the Linuxant site that my modem could run under a hcf or a hsf driver
Can anybody tell me what to do?
[Rest deleted] If you have an HCF modem then you need the HCF driver and if you have an HSF modem then you need the HSF driver. From what you show above you have an HCF modem The FREE driver you downloaded will limit you to only 14.4Kb and not the full speed the modem is capable. Therefore you need to "spend a penny" and buy the FULL version of the Linuxant driver. And don't forget - this is important - you need to download the CORRECT driver to match EXACTLY the kernel version/type you have in your computer. It's all there, spelt out, on the Linuxant website.
