detecting Hardware by WINE in RHEL5

dijmat · 12-24-2009, 01:04 PM

Hi ,all, Newbie here,

I install wine in my RHEL5.
I can install and run some windows softwares ,like realplayer, various types of games etc.

Now, my modems vendor,product ids are:

Code:

lsusb 
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 10ce:ea6a  <this is my modem>
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

As far as I know,RHEL5 doesn't support this modem.

So, I tried with wine.
I can install my USB modem's windows driver but the driver doesn't detect by wine automatically.
Is there any way that i can detect this hardware and use this driver using wine ?

This is important for me, cause i have Internet access only on other OS (Ubuntu 9.10).

Thanks.

Are you saying that a distro as new as 2007 does not support your USB modem? maybe you dont have it setup right.

Thanks for response.

Well, after you pointing i didn't configure the modem properly..
I tried again:

enter this line in the /etc/rc.local

Code:

modprobe usbserial vendor=0x10ce product=0xea6a

then reboot.
it attached the modem in /dev/ttyUSB0 as,

Code:

usbcore: registered new driver usbserial
drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for generic
usbserial_generic 1-1:1.0: generic converter detected
usb 1-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0
usbcore: registered new driver usbserial_generic
drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial Driver core

I've attached the wvdial.conf file.

when i try to dial with

Code:

[root@localhost ~]# wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.54.0
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
--> Sending: ATQ0
--> Re-Sending: ATZ
--> Modem not responding.

it failes to dial.

i use gnome-ppp in Ubuntu9.10 to dial this modem.
Is there anything like this in RHEL5 ?

Give me your suggestion.

Type

Code:

less /etc/wvdial.conf

on the RHL box and post the output, then we will try to configure it.

Perhaps, you didn't noticed that i've already attached my /etc/wvdial.conf
in my previous post as wvdial.txt.
Cause this forum didn't allow me to upload file in ".conf" format.
So, i uploaded in ".txt" fromat.

Any way, this will make a clear look:

Code:

cat /etc/wvdial.conf

[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
ISDN = off
Modem Type = USB Modem
Baud = 460800
Init = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","gpinternet"
Phone = *99***1#
Dial Prefix = 
Dial Attempts = 1
Dial Command = ATM0L0DT
Ask Password = off
Password = gp
Username = gp
Auto Reconnect = off
Abort on Busy = off
Carrier Check = on
Check Def Route = on
Abort on No Dialtone = on
Stupid Mode = off
Idle Seconds = 0
Auto DNS = on
;Minimize = on
;Dock = off
