I have a USB Zoom V90 56K external faxmodem, which is, I believe, device ttyACM0 (that's a zero not a capital o). How do I get Mandrake 9.1 (kernel 2.4.21.-25) to recognize it and use it for dialing out?Have you tried loading the module by: "modprobe acm" then using mincom or such program to see if you can talk to the modem?
Mandrake sees it in the devices list, but calls it an unknown device. The Wizard for setting up the Internet connection does not see it at all, and there appears to be no place for me to give it the correct device name using the Wizard.
When I was trying to identify all my USB devices (I had trouble at that time getting Mandrake to recognize my USB external floppy drive, which I solved), I got back the following information:
hub.c: new USB device 00:08.0-2, assigned address 5 usb.c: USB device 5 (vend/prod 0x803/0x9700) is not claimed by any active driver. usb.c: registered new driver acm ttyACM0: USB ACM device acm.c: v0.21:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters
Am I providing you the correct information? If not, what do you need?
Is there another utility -- GUI or CLI -- that will allow me to set up an Internet connection with this modem? I have the ML 9.1 PowerPack.
Thanks, deedee
