[hcflinux] Unable to use my 127A:4321 HCF modem

[Nicolas BENOIT]

Hello!

For a few months now, I have been trying to get my modem working.
I own a Riptide 127A:4321 (subvendor-id: 1235, subdevice-id: 4324).
I am using Mandrake 9.0 with 2.4.19-16 kernel.
I tried several versions (rpm and tar archive) of the drivers but
it still doesn't work...
I got no error when I am compiling riptide and HCF drivers.
I got no error when I am loading riptide and HCF modules.
But, I got some errors when I am trying to connect or to play sound.

Here it is for the sound:
<RT_HW> ERROR!!! Start DMA is failed
<RIPTIDE> ERROR!!! StartDMA error
<RT_HW> ERROR!!! Start DMA is failed
<RIPTIDE> ERROR!!! StartDMA error
<RT_HW> ERROR!!! Start DMA is failed
<RIPTIDE> ERROR!!! StartDMA error
<RT_HW> ERROR!!! Start DMA is failed
<RIPTIDE> ERROR!!! StartDMA error

<RIPTIDE> ERROR!!! StartDMA error
<RT_HW> ERROR!!! Start DMA is failed
<RIPTIDE> ERROR!!! StartDMA error
<RT_HW> ERROR!!! Start DMA is failed
<RIPTIDE> ERROR!!! StartDMA error

Here it is for the connection:

I have this message regularly too:
<RP_CMDIF> RipTide version before:
ASIC  : 3
CODEC : 2
AUXDSP: 3
PROG  : 773
<RP_CMDIF> Firmware size: 15597
<RP_CMDIF> Start RiptideLoadImage
<RP_CMDIF> Firmware is loaded.
<RP_CMDIF> RipTide version after:
ASIC  : 3
CODEC : 2
AUXDSP: 3
PROG  : 773


Other fact: When I am trying to connect, I can't hear the modem click,
that it always makes under Ms-Windows when hanging up the phone.

Greetings,
Nicolas.
