Hi to all of you I am a new user of Linux and I am busy in the configuration of my USB ISDN TA (Trust Thecnology I suppose). I use the distribution MANDRAKE 8.1 I have read many HOWTO about the modem configuration but few speaks about the USB ISDN TA. I have given a look to the threads in this mailing-list but I have not found anything that could resolve my problem.
I have found this procedure on the site of the SuSE: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- You want to use a USB ISDN terminal adapter with SuSE Linux. Procedure: The following BIOS options have to be set: USB enabled USB IRQ enabled PnP OS installed disabled The variable "START_USB" in the file /etc/rc.config must be set to "yes". Easiest way to change this value is to use YaST1: -> System administration -> Change configuration file After a system restart the following modules should have been loaded: usbcore usb-uhci or usb-ohci You can check this with the command lsmod as superuser root. Now configure your ISDN modem with YaST1. Therefore open the following dialogue: -> System administration -> Network configuration -> Configure PPP network Now you are in the Wvdial configuration menu. Please select "Autodetect modem". Now your modem should be detected. A standard analog modem would have been configured correctly at this stage and only the provider has to be specified yet under "Configure the current profile" or you choose one of the preconfigured call-by-call provider. But ISDN modems (also called terminal adapters) don't act like analog modems and they need a special initialization string. This has to be set with -> Configure the current profile -> Expert menu Select "(Standard-Analog-Modem/non-ISDN) Modem Type" for your terminal adapter. If you don't find an entry for your device, you must search at your terminal adapter manual for an AT command, that switches on the point-to-point-transfer mode. Mostly it can be found with the keyword "syncPPP". Type in this init string as "Init String 2 (sent to modem after first)". ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------- but I don't succeed in finding the file rc.config in Mandrake 8.1 and the modules: usbcore & usb-uhcis are already active with the specification: (unused) some one could tell me what is the mandrake's equiv of rc.config There is another way for Mandreke's user? excuse for the length of the mail Thanks Fabrizio I hope that someone of you can help me!
