Hello Tobias,
i am quite new on using Debian on the pb1400. I am more familiar with
SuSE Linux on PC's. Therfore I am not able to copy the output from dmesg
and post it here. But maybe the following helps.
I habe downloaded the kernel from Florian Boelstler's web site which is
the G3 Kernel with Media Bay support. dmesg report the following:
PowerMac Z88530 serial driver version 2.0.1
tty00 at 0x80f04002 (irq = 2) is a Z8530 ESCC
tty01 at 0x80f04000 (irq = 2) is a Z8530 ESCC, port = infrared (IrDA)
.
.
.
trex: XXX enabling card interupts
trex: XXX enabling card interupts
trex: XXX enabling card interupts
trex: XXX enabling card interupts
the command cardctl ident reports the following:
Socket 0:
product info: Lucent Venus, PCMCIA 56k DataFax
manfid: 0x0200, 0x0001
function: 2 (serial)
cardctl config reports;
Socket 0:
not configured
So at least the card is detected and identified.

Hi,
you will need a kernel with integrated 16x50 UART and PCMCIA-serial
drivers.
I once patched the kernel to not crash upon loading the UART driver on
startup but I don't know if the kernel you use does have this patch
applied but it might be.
Although I did get all necessary drivers to load I did not found out
how to use the modem. One has to address it as a standard PC serial
port; there should be created a device node upon loading of the
pcmcia-serial driver.
In order to see if you need some additional driver you should post the
output of "dmesg" after booting with the modem card inserted.

Hello,
I have a powerbook1400 with Sarge installed (G3/Mediabay kernel). I
also have a PCMCIA 56k modem card which I want to use to connect to
the internet. Can somebody explain me how to configure wvdial so that
it detects the modem card?
Cardmgr and cardctl show at lease some information, that the pcmcia
card is detected.
Thanks in advance
Stefan
