[hsflinux] No Dialtone

[Linuxant support]

Hi,

the "NO DIALTONE" and "NO CARRIER" symptoms are often caused by an IRQ
routing issue.

There are at least three options that might fix the problem. The easiest is
the first one.


1) Try playing with the following kernel boot parameters:

"pci=noacpi", "acpi=off", "noapic" and/or "apm=off".


2) Configure and install a generic 2.4 kernel (from kernel.org) with the
ACPI patches found on this web site:

http://sf.net/projects/acpi


3) Configure and install a generic 2.6 kernel.


With option 2 and 3, you need to install the generic modem driver package
(instead of a package specific to a single distribution/kernel). You will
find the generic drivers under the title "Generic packages with source" on
the download page. I recommend using the RPM when your distribution supports
it.

Please let us know about your results.

Hello there,

I just try the linuxant new hsf free driver on my Fujitsu-Siemens C1020
laptop.

I use Slack 9.1 + 2.4.22 kernel patched for acpi. Install and loading of
the modules works well.
Unlike with Slack 9.0 and 2.4.20 kernel, now the system does not hang
when i try to connect.

But nothing to do, each time i try to connect /var/log/messages receive a
"no dialtone" signal.

I have try to add atx3 to the init string, no change !

I need acpi so i can't disable it.

Any solution before i buy a real modem ?

Many thanks.

Philippe
