Hi there,
<p>I'm trying to make the hsf drivers work under RedHat Linux 7.3. Of course,
there is no success, yet.
<br>The output from the listmodem application is as follows:
<br>
<p>=============================================================
<br>=
RESULT OF MODEM QUERY
=
<br>=============================================================
<p>MODEM #1:
<br> PCI CONFIGURATION INFORMATION READ:
<br> Vendor Id
: 14F1
<br> Device Id
: 2013
<br> Revision Id
: 03
<br> Sub Vendor Id : 155D
<br> Sub Device Id : 6793
<p> DEDUCED INFORMATION:
<br> Vendor Name
: CONEXANT
<br> Device Name
: HSF Data/Fax
<br> Modem Type
: HSF
<br> Download Site : <A HREF="http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv/">http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv/</A>
<br>
<p>so, apparently, the drivers should work fine. Indeed, the installation
process with the rpm binary did not complain at all. When running the hsfconfig
program I am told that there exists a precompiled driver,
<br>so I tell the script to go ahead with that ... and a link is placed
so that
<p>/dev/modem -> /dev/ttySHSF0
<p>Then I configured wvdial as follows,
<p>[Modem0]
<br>Modem = /dev/modem
<br>Baud = 57600
<br>SetVolume = 2
<br>Dial Command = ATDT
<br>Init1 = ATZ
<br>FlowControl = Hardware (CRTSCTS)
<br>[Dialer PSU]
<br>Phone = 8632222
<br>Password = <i>my_passwd</i>
<br>Username = <i>my_usrname</i>
<br>Stupid Mode = 1
<br>Inherits = Modem0
<p>So everything is set. I try to dial (I use the Redhat dialer) and a
nice window with the "Waiting ..." message appears in my monitor. And this
message stays there forever ... So it looks like wvdial doesn't like what
it
<br>finds in /dev/modem.
<p>If anyone got the HSF modem working under RedHat 7.3, please, tell me
how did you get that.
<p>Thanks,
