The manufacturer of that card should provide the source driver. I guess that the problem you are having comes from the possible incompatibility between the driver and the kernel.
I haven't checked if you really need to load all those 'ppp related' modules. Maybe that PCI card does not require some... It is pppoe.so (the pppd plugin) module that is panicing the kernel... Hum, this requires additional investigation -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Braund [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, November 29, 2002 7:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [leaf-user] Dynalink PCI ADSL modem ALH110 - kernel panic in interrupt handler - not syncing Bering v1.0-stable AMD 586 24M ram 200M HDD Dynalink PCI ADSL modem ALH110 The main chip on the Board is Itex i903888EB CSSDCS04U ICNT230213 C 2002 ITEX The DSL HOWTO http://feenix.burgiss.net/ldp/adsl/overview.html "IteX PCI ADSL modems, based on the Apollo chipset, have Linux drivers.

The install instructions that came with the card basically say to install the modem driver then connect via PPPoE. Reading the Bearing docs makes me think that PCI modems need to be installed as PPPoA but the DSL howto makes me think PPPoE should be fine. mmmm I'm confused!... The driver that came on the CD with the card was for Kernel 2.4.2 itex1483-2.4.2-2.o and when I tried to load it; # insmod itex1483-2.4.2-2.o vpi=8 vci=35 framing=1 Using itex1483-2.4.2-2.o insmod: unresolved symbol tvec_bases I have found a driver from http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bering/latest/drivers/speedtouch-pci /1483 /itex1483-2.4.16.o which seems to load OK, the modem lights react correctly, I get Sync. but on reboot with the driver in /lib/modules and called in /etc/modules by; itex1483-2.4.2-2 vpi=8 vci=35 framing=1 I get a kernel panic. Full dump from my serial console at; http://63.111.28.72/panic.txt I have looked high and low for a more appropriate driver, any clues would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance Andrew Braund PS I have been able to get ADSL working fine on this Bearing firewall using an Alcatel Speedtouch Ethernet modem following the PPPoE instructions in the Bearing user guide; http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bupppoe.html ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T handheld.
