Hi,
I have an installation based on Slackware 8.1 (kernel 2.4.18). 

To this box I want to attach a new Ericsson G3x Fixed Wireless Terminal,
 a GSM/GPRS/3G unit. It is only accessable through USB though. 

I have tried to load the requested modules but got a bit unshure if I shall 
use acm or usbserial.
At the time being I seem to get further in my trial with the latter. 

lsmod gives:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
usbserial              17888   0  (unused)
usb-uhci               20708   0  (unused)
usbcore                48000   1  [usbserial usb-uhci] 

I have uncommented and edited following in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules
/sbin/modprobe usb-uhci
/sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0bdb product=0x101b 

The Hexvalues was cut from
/proc/bus/usb/devices wich gave:
D:  Ver= 2.00 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  3
P:  Vendor=0bdb ProdID=101b Rev= 1.00
S:  Manufacturer=Ericsson
S:  Product=Ericsson G3x Fixed Wireless Terminal
S:  SerialNumber=358211-00-115545
some rows
I:  If#= 2 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=0a(data ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=serial 

dmesg gives:

usbserial.c: Generic converter detected
usbserial.c: Generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0 (or usb/tts/0 for 
devfs) 

When I try to open the device ttyUSB0 I am unable to communicate with my 
modem with minicom as well as cu. One reason might be that I do not know 
what speed to use???? Another reason might be that my setup is wrong. 

So, is it correct to use usbserial or is it acm that should be used?? 

It is frustrating to see that the kernel is able to talk to the phone but  
not me :( 

Any one who can give me a hint? 

Another peculiar thing is that I'm not able to mount devusbfs from fstab I 
have to do it explicit in rc.local. (Yes I know a merge of distrubution 
might help but there are a whole lot of other items that needs to be fixed 
as well, means that a merge will take a lot more time...) 

Regards GH
