Hi all.
I'm an Italian new Linux user. This is my first post, sorry if my english is not very good.
I'm using a Slackware 12.0 with kernel 2.6.23.11 on an Acer Aspire 5652WLMi laptop. I need to use a PCMCIA PC-Card for HSDPA/UMTS connection.
The model of the PC-Card is "ONDA N501HS", but I suppose that it's only an italian box, Linux recognize it as a Qualcomm, Inc.
These are the steps that I followed.
Recompiled the kernel disabling ehci_hcd.
When I put the PC-Card into the PCMCIA, dmesg says:
Code:
pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0
PCI: Enabling device 0000:07:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:07:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:07:00.0 to 64
ohci_hcd 0000:07:00.0: OHCI Host Controller
ohci_hcd 0000:07:00.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 5
ohci_hcd 0000:07:00.0: irq 16, io mem 0×54000000

PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:07:00.1 to 64
ohci_hcd 0000:07:00.1: OHCI Host Controller
ohci_hcd 0000:07:00.1: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 6
ohci_hcd 0000:07:00.1: irq 16, io mem 0×54001000
usb usb6: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
hub 6-0:1.0: USB hub found
hub 6-0:1.0: 1 port detected
usb 6-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
usb 6-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
With lsusb I can identify the vendor and the product ID, so I can use the command
Code:
modprobe usbserial vendor=0×05c6 product=0×6613
At this point dmesg says:
Code:
usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial
drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for generic
usbserial_generic 6-1:1.0: generic converter detected
usb 6-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0
usbserial_generic 6-1:1.1: generic converter detected
usb 6-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB1
usbserial_generic 6-1:1.2: generic converter detected
usb 6-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB2
usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic
drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial Driver core
So I suppose that the modem is on ttyUSB2. When I do an AT request to this device it answers with is IMEI code.
I configure KPPP as illustrated on openlinux.eu/content/view/124/.
But it returns an error (sorry, it's in italian):
Code:
Il demone pppd ha interrotto la connessione in modo inaspettato!
Valore ritornato: 1
Consulta la pagina del manuale di pppd (man pppd) per verificare il significato del codice d’errore ritornato oppure leggi le FAQ di kppp a developer.kde.org/-kppp/index.html
that is something like "pppd daemon died unexpectedly. Error returned: 1. Please use man pppd or visit our website".
In the details:
Code:
pppd[4279]: Couldn’t get channel number: Input/output error
And the terminal:
Code:
$ kppp
Opener: received OpenLock
Opener: received OpenDevice

Kernel supports ppp alright.
