Hello everybody I have a Targus CF modem that I'm trying to use in my C750 under the latest Angstrom with no success.
When I insert the CF card I get in /var/log/messages: --- Jan 1 00:01:19 c7x0 user.notice kernel: pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0 Jan 1 00:01:19 c7x0 user.notice kernel: pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0 Jan 1 00:01:19 c7x0 user.info kernel: Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled Jan 1 00:01:20 c7x0 user.warn kernel: pcmcia: CIS filename is too long Jan 1 00:01:20 c7x0 user.warn kernel: pcmcia: CIS filename is too long Jan 1 00:01:20 c7x0 user.warn kernel: pcmcia: request for exclusive IRQ could not be fulfilled. Jan 1 00:01:20 c7x0 user.warn kernel: pcmcia: the driver needs updating to supported shared IRQ lines. Jan 1 00:01:20 c7x0 user.info kernel: 0.0: ttyS4 at I/O 0xc48203f8 (irq = 40) is a 16550A --- (the reason for the bogus dates is that c750 for some reason does not preserve the date/time across reboots) The device is set as /dev/ttyS4 which is already strange because under OZ (where the modem was working without trouble) it was /dev/ttyS3. Tha problem is that the modem does not respond to any command and is unusable (with no further messages in dmesg or /var/log/messages). I actually tried using all the ports from /dev/ttyS0 to /dev/ttyS4 (with minicom and my normal ppp scripts). I checked on my laptop and the modem is OK. I get the same results both in a "normal" installation and in an "altboot to SD" one (which are more or less the same with kernel 2.6.21, pcmciautils 014-r1, fully updated). It is a pity, because otherwise the latest Angstrom is great (no problems with any other app, or with my wireless card etc.). I didn't find anything in the bugtracker. Am I missing something obvious or should I file a bug? -- Grigoris Prasinos PhD student, Computer Engineering and Informatics Dept., U of Patras, Greece http://grigorios.prasinos.eu/ PGP/GPG Key fingerprint = CDC7 BA79 3C5D 9520 F9F1 FC56 6B2A 2EEB 0227 C528
