Dear Martin, my previous message probably started while I was getting a disturbance on the line: this is the ocrrect one. As I said, I am starting seyon with
seyon -modems /dev/ttyI0 & my .seyon/startup now contains these lines (I have changed my phone number) echo "Initializing modem..." transmit "AT&e222222s14=3^M" echo "Current settings:" transmit "AT&V^M" and my .seyon/phonelist this one (phone number changed) 080088888 PSI This message appears in Seyon's xterm window: Locating Modems... >> Error: Could not get linux serial info: Invalid argument. >> Warning: invalid default BPS value: 9600. Modem ``/dev/ttyI0'' is Available. Initializing modem... Current settings: AT&e222222s14=3 OK AT&V S00=000 S01=000 S02=043 S03=013 S04=010 S05=008 S06=003 S07=060 S08=002 S09=006 S10=007 S11=070 S12=069 S13=004 S14=003 S15=000 S16=064 S17=008 S18=004 S19=000 S20=004 S21=000 S22=000 EAZ/MSN: 222222 OK And nothing more happens. I have a few questions: 1) ttyI0 is appropriate for ISDN connections: what does the error about "linux serial info" mean? 2) In the .Xresources, I have the line Seyon.modems: /dev/ttyI0 but starting seyon without the -modems option gives an error. Is the syntax above correct or should /dev/ttyI0 be quoted? The doc says this field is a list of /dev/ttyxx's: how does one specify a list in .Xresources? 3) If I start with -nodial and then run xisdnload, I see the number I have sin the phonelist shown in the status line of xisdnload: why if seyon is not supposed to dial out? 4) Still with -nodial, if I choose "manual dialing" and type in the phone number, I get "no dialtone" (all right, much seems not to be working yet, so this is no wonder). 5) In Switzerland (Euro/DSS1) we get three phone numbers with the ISDN installation. I have assigned the first one to the first analogic line (by programming this on the phone) and left the other two free. Is the MSN any of those two (as I have chosen for my init string)? 6) The register settings above coincide with those in the isdn doc README file, whereby I set s14=3 for HDLC, except for S20 which, in the README, is 0. Is this all right? Hoping g to make another tiny step forward (maybcalling my own machine, just to check the card), I thank you for the hints you gave me so far.
