[hsflinux] NO DIALTONE, Mandrake 9.1 distro ("me too", I know...)

[Linuxant modem support]

Hi,

Are you sure that your modem has a Conexant chipset?

The PCI ID "1106:3068" represents the VIA MC97 controller, to which various
AC-Link modems can be connected. However, only those based on Conexant chips
are supported.

Also, it might be an IRQ problem. You can try playing with the kernel
options "noapic", "acpi=off" and/or "apm=off".

If that doesn't work, you can try to configure and install a generic kernel
with the ACPI patches found on this web site:
http://sf.net/projects/acpi

You will then need to use the generic HSF driver and compile the modules
with "hsfconfig".

Please tell us about your results.

Regards,

Some new results :
- As the laptop has an AMD athlong processor, I switched it to SuSE 8.2 and
tried the athlon-specific driver. No better results
- Thanks to Giuliano's previous message, I realized that the French settings
for RELAYS and FLAGS were in a Windows file with ".cty" extension instead of
".inf". Unfortunately they were exactly the same in the Windows file and in
the Linux file.
- I tried to copy over many other settings from the Windows driver but it
did
not help either.

In short : I believe I tried everything, but it still does not work.
