Hi all,
PROBLEM SUMMARY: I installed Mandrake Linux 7.1 two weeks ago and I'm
still trying to get my modem to work. Each time I try to use it I receive
the message "Sorry, modem is busy." when trying to use it from KPPP.
PROBLEM DETAIL: Below I have included the output of numerous commands in
order to provide as much information as possible. (Sorry for the long
length). I've tried the setserial command to specify the IRQ and IO address
of the modem but it still does not work. Maybe someone can see something
I'm missing. Its seems to me my modem should work? I�ve searched archives
and HOW To and the web and can�t find anything that works.
I'm running a dual boot system and the modem works fine under Windows 98.
My sound card is a �TBS (Turtle Beach System) Montego II Sound Blaster Pro
Emulation�. My system is a �DELL XPS T600� 600 Mhz w/256RAM. My video card
is a Voodoo 3500 TV card.
I have an internal PCI hardware controller based modem. Its Vendor id is
12b9 and Device id=1008 which rule of thumb says is a hardware controller
based modem.
My modem is a:
U.S. Robotics 56K INT Voice PCI
Windows reports its IRQ is 09 and I/O: 1040h-1047h and is installed on
COM5.
I've had great difficulty identifying its real Model number. I received it
with my DELL XPS T600 system and specifically ordered this modem from Dell
to replace the default winmodem that normally ships with their systems.
Anyway, the HTML doc for my modem on its CD-Rom says it's 3COM part number
is "3CP3298-DEL". Dell Support said it's a "3Com Hawk MODEM, a PCI
Controller-based Fax, Voice and V.90 Data MODEM. The Dell part number is
4306P."
Here is the output of "AT" commands I used to query the modem to find what
model number it would report. Several numbers it reported were "5601" and
"USR3070". If someone knows which number is the "real" model number, please
let me know.

I have tried the following set serial commands and still receive the message
"Sorry, the modem is busy" when trying to use KPPP under KDE to talk to the
modem.
