Hi All,

Re SuSE 5.3

I wonder if anyone can help me. I know that I can set the address and IRQ for a network card by sending kernel parameters at boot time. Along similar lines I want to do this for my modem. An alternative would be placing these settings into a file somewhere. My difficulty is that I don't seem to be able to find this information or where a file might be kept that I can use.

If anybody has any Ideas or can provide a pointer or two in the right direction that would be great.

Thanks in advance..

Regards. Derrick S

Take a look at man setserial -- this will probably be what you are looking for (unless it is a PNP modem, in which case man pnpdump, man isapnp and man isapnp.conf will be necessary also). And if it is a winmodem, you are out of luck. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

It sounds like you are using an pnp modem. You edit the /etc/isapnp.conf file to set the irq's for the card. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
