Hi Have two modems, The current one that I used with Mandrake 9.0 no
problems therefore used the same driver for 9.1, told me I was "tainting the
kernel" its a >Telepermit Holder Ricoh New Zealand Limited
Product Name Ricoh1800L Facsimile Transceiver FCU: H5467200 Manufacturer
Ricoh Company Limited Japan Model no. 1800L HWV FCU: H5467200 Ringer Loading
(RN/RAL) 0.5 Year 2000
Compliant unknown 11-May-01 Comment 33.6k Fax with PC interface According to
the telepermit,
Manufacture by Speedcom Rockwell chipset I traced it to Connexant who say
that Linux might recognize it as either HSF or HCF so try both drivers!!
the other modem is an Ambient/Intel similar situation,said something that
Linux cant use the main processor in the same fashion (as you know who) and
has to have a "real modem" Would I be correct in asking is
Mandrake/$icrosoft in the same mode in that they disregard the equipment
that is in current use and only interested in almost new,and I will be
forever chasing my tail? or is that half the fun..Will try some of the kind
suggestions that I received and carry on with the saga..
Thanks to All
Bob Bernard.
