I've been trying to get diald to work for a while now without any luck.
Diald loads with no errors other than the SIOCSIFMETRIC on a 2.2 kernel
problem. diald sees an out going packet and tries to bring up the link. It
runs the connect script, /etc/diald/connect, but the script does not seem
to be connected to the modem. chat does not get a reply and even a simple
echo "AT", which normally turns the modem's speaker on, does nothing.
I am running a 2.2.13 kernel without any patches, on what is bascilly a
debian/unstable distribution.
I have tried the diald_0.99.1-0.2.deb binary package and compiling the
diald source. The pppd package works wonderfully on the same device
/dev/ttyS1 (COM2) under identical conditions.
Does anybody have any ideas for what might be wrong? Would it be possible
to leave something important out of the kernel that doesn't generate any
errors? Could I have given diald an option which prevents it from calling
the connector correctly?
Any help will be greatly appricated, don't hesitate to speak up, if only
to call me a fool.
