PCTEL HSP56 modem IN rh8.0


Hi everybody!

I installed RH8.0 a few months ago and I really like it, Im just trying to fix some problems to trash my WIN2k.

One of these problems is my modem.
I have a HSP56 PCTEL modem, i has tried with the both drivers of the pctel and had errors in the make.

I dont know what is the problem and I dont know how can I know the chipset cause in the "physical chip" is not the information.

Please help me.

I know that this thread is almost a repetitvely one ... but you know each case is unic.

Thanks a lot.

It works, i run pctel hsp56, download the drivers .96 version & compile as

./configure--with-kernel-includes=/usr/src/linux2.4.18-4/include
--with-hal=pct789

it shoud work. visit my website
http://infologics.50megs.com/linux.htm
for further info

after u get the modem working,

add the following lines to rc.local

insmod -sfq pctel
insmod -sfq ptserial

that wil take care of loading the modulse every time u start up.

Diego !! i found your prob !!!
try to specify where Your kernel is !! look at the head of your auto config

checking for gcc...3.2
searching for kernel includes...** error
could not find any kernel sources in /usr/src
you have either not installed your kernel sources
or your kernel sources are installed in another place then

here is your prob !! so try to update your data base in your VI using the command

I also have a pctel micromodem and have noticed a nasty glitch when dialing . In the faq it mentions that the modem can sometimes hang while dialing and that this can be resolved by reloading pctel.o and ptserial.o but when my modem hangs it FREEZES the kernel in the process, and yes i have tried ctrl+alt+delete and ctrl+alt+backspace whith no luck has anyone else had their system freeze like this when the modem hangs?

Still have problems

Sorry .. I know the post was ... rare.
I hava two problems, I dont know how to probe the modem
I tried with wvdialconf .. but it doesnt detect the modem ...
And I dont know why I cant use slocate and locate and updatedb
In Spanish "Comando no encontrado" mean "Command not found".

Try these things :
1.add Kernel packages check if all sellected
2.updatedb
3.Disable the line " trident " ..... in /etc/modules.conf bye putting # at the beggining of the line

////////////// drivers now //////////////////

4../configure -auto
5.Make
6.Make install
7.select " Modem " not stty0..........15

LOCATE NEVER WORK IF U DONT UPDATE YOUR DATTA BASE " updatedb"
good luck
