Are PC Card Modems supported in Solaris 10 x86?
I tested today again a Dlink DM-560 Data/Fax Modem and it did not work as
expected.
Solaris detects the PC Card and creates the device entry in /dev/cua/pc0 (see
below). But when I use the device (for example with tip) the machine is
completly frozen. I must turn it off and on again to get it working again.
Environment: Acer Ferrari 4005, Solaris 10 x86 snv_37, cardbus driver v0.3
regards
Bernd
