Hello, just want to mention how it got solved. AFAICS it was a combination of not loadnig the drivers correct ( serial_cs.o AND serial.o both seem to be needed ) and a bad resetted modem. After i compiled the serial.o again, and tried AT&F instead of ATZ, it worked. Many thanks Bill, for your suggestion !
-- micha ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Thank you, Bill, for replying. > > Now here's the chat from my desktop, which is working well: Actually you do not have debug set up for pppd on the desktop. But there is enough here . Another possibility is that your modem is improperly set up not to be using 8 bit protocol for some reason (or perhaps it is defective). The far end is sending back 7 bit stuff. That is all I can read from teh logs. > And in comparison here's the chat from my laptop again > ( i disabled the lpc stuff as you suggested, and it did no harm :) but seems > to be not hitting the problem ): OK. I can see nothing here which could be causing the problem. I am suspicious of your modem or modem setup. It must be set up for 8 bit no parity. I think pppd is supposed to do that, but perhaps not. > Feb 3 00:50:07 piro chat[2142]: OK^M > Feb 3 00:50:07 piro chat[2142]: ATZ^M^M Actually I like AT&F better.

I do not know. Something seems to be improperly setting up your modem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's a gericom v.90 modem card on a dell inspiron 5000, and it seems to work. I dial into an ISP with standard pap / chat login procedure and dynamic DNS. The same peers and ppp-options on my desktop works fine, but not the laptop. On the laptop, I can dial and log in with minicom. It looks like: atz at &f OK atz OK atdt7671796 CONNECT 1200 V42bis Wilkommen bei Breisnet Online Plus (Flatrate) (0761 7671 798) login: its_me Password: no_matter PPP session from (195.2.163.146) to 213.218.5.147 [EMAIL PROTECTED] }4}"}&} } } } }%}&|E}'}"}(}"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"} }4}"}&} } } } }%}&|E}'}"}(}"8%~ OK But i don't see any route and cannot ping anywhere ! Also with wvdial and pon there was no route and no ping possible after the ppp has started up. I wonder if it's something specific to the modem card. IBut the 'sound' seems ok...it's just not entering TCP/IP. Now here's the chat from my desktop, which is working well: DESKTOP: Feb 2 23:11:16 woody pppd[1023]: pppd 2.4.1 started by root, uid 0 Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: abort on (BUSY) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: abort on (NO CARRIER) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: abort on (VOICE) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: abort on (NO DIALTONE) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: abort on (NO DIAL TONE) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: abort on (NO ANSWER) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: abort on (DELAYED) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: send (ATZ^M) Feb 2 23:11:17 woody chat[1024]: send (ATM1L1 ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 S11=55 +FCLASS=0^M) Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: expect (OK) Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: ATZ^M^M Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: OK Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: -- got it Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: send (ATDT7671796^M) Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: expect (CONNECT) Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: ^M Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 S11=55 +FCLASS=0^M^M Feb 2 23:11:18 woody chat[1024]: OK^M Feb 2 23:11:47 woody chat[1024]: ATDT7671796^M^M Feb 2 23:11:47 woody chat[1024]: CONNECT Feb 2 23:11:47 woody chat[1024]: -- got it Feb 2 23:11:47 woody chat[1024]: send (\d) Feb 2 23:11:48 woody pppd[1023]: Serial connection established.
