How to create /dev/ttyLT0?


i am trying to get my win(lin)modem working; i have compiled and been able to modprobe the lucent winmodem driver modules in my 2.6.3 kernel; dmesg recognizes the new modules and says that ttyLT0 is Luncent Winmodem (irq 9)

however, i see no such device in my /dev directory; the MAKEDEV script doesn't know how to build that device either; the instructions for installing the driver on the 2.6 kernel says that the modem must be accessed through ttyLT0, but how can i access this, build it, or find it?

i made the device with mknod... but still not luck with the winmodem

it seems i may have to do a kernel recompile to put in some extra serial options and it hasn't been 2 weeks since my last one... o well

darn family just won't get rid of aol, arghh...

You need to download the ltmodem driver from here http://www.heby.de/ltmodem and build it. Once it is built you would run the ./ltinst2 script which loads the driver and makes the /dev/ttyLT0. Then the ./autoload script will setup your /etc/modules.conf file.
More info here.

With Mandrake 9.1 you can set up kppp > devices > /dev/ttyLTO and as long as you have the lt_modem and lt_serial modules loaded it should work.
