Have you run the "hcfpciconfig" program? Otherwise try uninstalling  the rpm and install the generic one instead

  Hi everyone!
  I'm getting crazy trying to install and configure my "stupid" modem (HCF Rockwell 56K). I installed the rpm I found in the Conexant website, the one for my kernel version (2.4.19-16mdk Mandrake 9.0). The installation works well (or so it seems), but in the /dev directory the /ttySHCF0 device is absent...
  So I tried to follow the HCF Driver FAQ, running "dmesg", and this is the result:

  [...]
  HCF ASIC ID: 215
  2598991.828: HCF: DEVMGR ERROR: DpReset: timed out waiting for checksum 1
  2598991.828: HCF: DEVMGR ERROR!!!! DpReset returns FALSE, attempt=0
  2598992.333: HCF: DEVMGR ERROR: DpReset: timed out waiting for checksum 1
  2598992.333: HCF: DEVMGR ERROR!!!! DpReset returns FALSE, attempt=1
  2598992.838: HCF: DEVMGR ERROR: DpReset: timed out waiting for checksum 1
  2598992.838: HCF: DEVMGR ERROR!!!! DpReset returns FALSE, attempt=2
  2598992.838: HCF: DEVMGR Fails DM_ActivateHardware
  hcf_request_port: ComCtrlOpen failed, r=1!

  This part of response, however, appears only after I run "minicom" (I think, then, when I try to "talk" to the modem).

  I read many forums, tutorials, helps, faqs ... but I'm unable to find a solution.
  Can you help me?

  Ah, if I run the "lspci -v" command, the result is:

  00:08.0 Communication controller: Rockwell International HCF 56k Data/Fax/Voice/Spkp (w/Handset) Modem (rev 01)
   Subsystem: Rockwell International HCF 56k Data/Fax/Voice/Spkp (w/Handset) Modem
   Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 9
   Memory at dc000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
   I/O ports at e400 [size=8]
   Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2


  Thanks in advance,
  Ursula
