Hello all, I have bought a CF modem for my tosa (Zaurus SL-6000). I tested the modem in another Zaurus with cacko, so I know it's working. With angstrom, the modem is recognized, the kernel modules are loaded (cf_serial). I can eject, suspend, resume the card using pccardctl perfectly. But I can't talk to it (using minicom for example). Though it is at ttyS0. Is there a solution. It is the only thing that is not working. And I would hatte to switch to a 2.4 kernel distro just for the modem, but it's essential. Has anyone experience with that?
I found this thread about the same problem (without answer): 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.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 _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Michael Peintinger -------------------------------- Michael Peintinger Auf dem Hügel 52 53121 Bonn Telefon: +49-(0)228-9092686 Mobil: +49-(0)174-3319711 Skype: mpeintinger ICQ: 138398441 E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: www.peintinger.com _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
