Hello,
I've recently installed Mandrake on my personal "workstation" (and have
since went on a Mandrake install-fest at my office :)).
But now I've come across a (major, for me) problem. I cannot seem to get
my PCI modem working.
It's an Aztech MDP3858SP-U modem. I don think it's a winmodem but I
could be wrong.
It works in NT (which is what I'm migrating from and forced to use right
now) and DOS.
I have searched and read dozens of howtos/help/infobase/newgroup
archives etc. to no avail. setserial does not seem to work either.
Linux does seem to "see" the board, however, from KDE's control centre's
"Information -> PCI" page...it's listed as serial controller using
irq10. (this is correct even in windows) but not much else. I've tried
to assign ttyS2 this irq (using setserial) and even got the I/O address
from windows settings right. kppp still isn't able to query the modem at
all. All ATx commands generate blanks.
I cannot believe this apparently simple problem (of setting up a PCI
mdem) does not have a proper howto for it...even a mini one. If I get
this working, I'm going to write one up. If one already exists, could
someone please point me in the right direction?
Any help would be greatly appreciated (since it would mean the end of NT
as far as I'm concerned :)).
TIA.
