ReadMe file for the Intel v90 Data/Fax Host Accelerated Modem (HaM) contents: 1. Installation 2. Instructions for Debian Users 3. File Descriptions 4. International Users 5. Beta Tester appreciation 6. Comments, ideas, problems, fixes --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 INSTALLATION 3 steps to install 1. Type: make clean 2. Type: make all 3. Type: make install The installation script has been designed for the following distributions release versions mandrake-release SuSE-release redhat-release debian_version (including Corel) slackware-version conectiva-version Unknown distributions install driver in a redhat-release style. Please examine the haminst script if you have a different distribution. The driver is split in two. A ham serial driver and core driver. The core driver must be loaded first since the serial driver depends on it. The serial driver registers itself as character device major number 240, minor number 1. The serial driver takes one argument right now, which is a number to override the default major number if you need to. The eratta.html has useful information concerning both positive and negative driver issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 DEBIAN USERS the file /usr/include/linux/modversions.h does not exist in debian 2.2 you must comment out the #include line from both hamdefs.h files in the HaM source code for it to compile. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 FILE DESCRIPTIONS haminst installation script to install HaM modules and supporting files files copied to /lib/modules/(kernel-version)/misc hamcore.o driver core code module ham.o pseudo serial driver for HaM, depends on hamcore.o files copied to /etc/rc.d/... (path differes per distribution) hamboot boot scrip to start and stop HaM modules files copied to /usr/sbin hamtool a GUI that assists in the country selection for homologation purposes hamcfg hamcfg is the "registry" like tool that the modem uses to get and store persistant data such as county info and profile strings. files copied to /etc hamdata file that stores persistant data for modem. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4 INTERNATIONAL USERS if hamcfg currently depends on gnome libraries. if you do not have gnome installed then you will have to put an extra command in your 'AT' init string. the commmand to change country setting is "AT+GCI=" the command takes a t.35 country code in hexadecimal. here is a list of currently supported t.35 country codes: if you are a CTR-21 country I think you should be able to choose a CTR-21 country on the list and be ok. but that's no guarantee. country code , t.35 code --------------------------- USA 1, b5 JPN 81, 00 GBR 44, b4 DEU 49, 42 SWE 46, a5 DNK 45, 31 FIN 358, 3c NOR 47, 82 AUT 43, 0a CHE 41, a6 RUS 7, b8 AUS 61, 09 MYS 60, 6c CHN 86, 26 BEL 32, 0f CYP 357, 2d FRA 33, 3d GRC 30, 46 ISL 354, 52 IRL 353, 57 ISR 972, 58 ITA 39, 59 LIE 423, 68 LUX 352, 69 NLD 31, 7b PRT 351, 8b ESP 34, a0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 Thanks to the following beta testers for their valuable input and suggestions.
