RedHat 7.3 w/ 2.4.19 Kernel - Internet Config!
Hi, i just got redhat, and then firstly updated the kernel. Now i have a winmodem and so had to get winmodem drivers which all went well, bit by bit i got more and more stuf in the PPP log (using KPPP in KDE!)
however, it does not ocnnect, i have a feeling it, NEARLY connects, but unfortunatele that just doesnt cut the mustard when it comes to surfing the net this is what i get from the log window just before it stops and the current process and starts over!

What modem is it?
|
its a Conexant HSF Winmodem - Data/Voice/Fax
linux sees it as Conexant LinModem - Data, once the appropriate drivers are installed (from http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv/) |
*bump*
anyone?? the modem shoudl work, the drivers shoul dbe fine, anyone? :@ |
Can you post the PCI ID for the device?
|
what do you mean, you mean the PCI slot number the card is in ? if so its in slot no.1 (the one directly BELOW the AGP port)
|
No you get the PCI ID of the card by doing "lspci -vv" as root, also it's not a good idea to have a card in slot one as it normally shares an IRQ with the agp slot and agp cards don't like sharing, try moving it to another slot.
|
Which hcfpcimodem package are you using? If you downloaded one for your distro, it'll have become out-dated when you upgraded your kernel - fix this by using one of the "generic" rpms instead - then hcfpciconfig will build drivers compatible with your kernel.
|
its the HSF packages i need, which i used, and i used the TAR package, and installed it manually cause there wasnt a package for 2.4.19 yet. The drivers should be fine (i say should). Linux recognised a installed modem, installed properly!

Ah well....there we go then :)
Have you considered getting a new mobo? or an external modem? |
i have considered getting anew mobo but at christmas. And to be honest thats a very bad suggestion :D doesnt help, im gonna get this one working! :)
|
Well if the modem drivers are installed properly and just not working, you should direct your questions to the hsflinux mailing list - find it on the same website that you got the driver from.
|
ok then :)
