Hallo Liste ich arbeite mit einem Winmodem, vielleicht bei einigen von euch verpönt, aber es läuft auf meinem ThinkPad 1# class, noch besser als unter Windows. Nun versuche ich das "ltmodem.o" Modul richtig zu plazieren. Unter SuSe 6.4 /sbin/init.d/rc2.d-rcS.d kann ich aber diese untenstehende Datei "S20modem" nicht finden. Wie würde denn das bei SuSe 6.4 aussehen, damit das ltmodem.o Modul "after any serial or any other relatice module" geladen wird. wondering thankful Tobias

Module ltmodem.o should be loaded last, after any serial or any other relatice module. Looks like serial should be initialized before ltmodem does. So, it I might install it just before I call my ppp-on script and not during booting. On my system during boot, setserial is run early and my /etc/rc2.d directory includes: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jun 22 11:04 S20makedev -> ../init.d/makedev lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jun 23 22:52 S20modem -> /etc/init.d/modem lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Jun 22 11:04 S20ppp -> ../init.d/ppp o that ppp is called just after modem, with the modem script being: #! /bin/sh # /etc/init.d/winmodem: start Lucent Tech WinModem, using /dev/ttyS14. # test -f /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/ltmodem.o -a -f /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot || exit 0 echo -n "Inserting LTMODEM WinModem driver in kernel" echo " " /sbin/insmod -f ltmodem echo " " /sbin/lsmod echo " " Since kernels with forced in modules maybe flaky, the ltmdem.o module and ppp related modules are removed with ppp shutdown by: #! /bin/sh # /usr/local/bin/Modown ends a pppd session and does cleanup. # Starting pppd session related modules are: # ppp_deflate 39108 1 (autoclean) # bsd_comp 3664 0 (autoclean) # ppp 19916 2 (autoclean) [ppp_deflate bsd_comp] # slhc 4200 1 (autoclean) [ppp] # ltmodem 452936 1 # NOTE THAT ltmodem did NOT acquire autoclean status poff # starts the pppd shutdown sleep 2 # is a pause to let the poff process to terminate, after which /sbin/rmmod ltmodem # seems necessary because of the initial forcing " insmod -f ltmodem " # and consequent lack of kernel module "autoclean" capability. /sbin/rmmod -a # then suffices to remove the other unnecessary pppd related modules # but doesn't remove the sound related modules called up.
