[hsflinux] hsflinux: Cannot open modem on Suse9.1: NO CARRIER detection

Wed Aug 25 11:36:01 EDT 2004

Hi again Jonathan

I just tried your  string AT &F X1 but it's the same..
i also added "pci=noapci" into kernel boot parameters but it doesn't work..
I'm not sure i understand when i have to pick up the phone..
my phone cable is connected into PC modem output... 
when shall I exactly pick up? my phone is not connected indeed...
..when I launch ATDTXXXXX I hear a click into my notebook but I can't hear
it dialing,
though I set "speaker on" into settings. Into XP mode, I hear the modem
dialing.
I don't know how to proceed now.....
..if yu need other logs or other info please let me know.....
thanks for now for your kind help.... hope to see the light....

bye
Gabriele
