Stop me having to reinstall modem EVERYTIME
I GOT IT GOING BUT!!
How i get /dev/modem to be there in the first place(work), is to install and configure the drivers/modules(?) by doin: ./configure --with-hal=pctel789 make make install --change to root-- insmod -f pctel insmod -f ptserial --------------------------------- Then run kppp and connect to internet but how can i make /dev/modem stay because after a reboot it goes I even added to /etc/modules.conf # for pctel modem alias char-major-62 ptserial below ptserial pctel # country code for pctel modem options ptserial country_code=32 Then ran depmod -a (as root) but no luck, i only get /dev/modem if i reinstall the drivers each time. Thanks CaM Mandrake 9.1 2.4.21-0.13mdk PS i think modem should be on /dev/ttyS15 - but that often disapears too |

I am using Slackware 9 but this should work in MD as well. Edit your /etc/rc.d/rc.modules and insert this 2 lines :
/sbin/modprobe pctel /sbin/modprobe ptserial and restart your pc. Hope this works for you! |
I also have Knoppix/debian and added those 2 lines in the /etc/modules file.
BTW,use the latest pctel driver,it is better than using 'hal':http://www.medres.ch/~jstifter/pctel/pctel-0.9.7.html enjoy1 |
