[hsflinux] Cannot open modem on Suse 9.1 - no such device or address

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

in the dump you have provided, we can see that you have the 'slamr' 
module in the output of the 'lsmod' command. This module often takes 
control of the modem, preventing the HSF driver to control your modem.

Since you are using SuSE 9.1, please add the following line in your 
'/etc/modprobe.conf.local' file :

---
install slamr /bin/true
---

Then, reboot your computer and try to use the modem.

For Mandrake 10, if you still want to use the modem driver on this 
distribution, please install the latest HSF driver package and then 
please send at support at linuxant.com a 'dumpdiag' that you can generate 
with the 'hsfconfig --dumpdiag' command in a root shell.

Regards,
