[hsflinux] Modem hangup

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

you should make sure that:

1) That there are no processes which are trying to use 100% CPU and/or I/O.
2) There is not something else that put an excessive stain on the 
system. For example, a user reported in the past that enabling DMA for 
his hard drive did solve the problem.

It could also be a problem with the modulation code. Perhaps that trying 
to use one of the following init. strings will solve the problem. Each 
of these init. strings will select a different modulation. You should 
try out each of them until you find a stable one.
