Hi,
I installed the Debian Sarge on my laptop IBM-Thinkpad-600E. But the internel modem is not working. I tried the debian package "mwavem" and failed. I did everying following the "ACP-modem-mini-how-to" and failed.
When I execute:
#modprobe mwave
I have:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/lib/modules/2.4.27-2-686/kernel/drivers/char/mwave/mwave.o: init_module: Input/output error
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

/lib/modules/2.4.27-2-686/kernel/drivers/char/mwave/mwave.o: insmod mwave failed

OR when I execute:
#apt-get install mwavem
I have:

I think the problem is the same. the mwave module can't be installed. I tried every evalue of IO and IRQ, but it is still not working. It has taken me more than one week on it. Very frustrating. Anyone has suggestion?
