Re: PnP ( ie: Modem )
hi,
don't know if this will help at all, but if you're running an award bios
and can upgrade to the latest version (4.51, i believe) it will initialize
the pnp cards for you. i just built a computer with an asus motherboard,
and it initializes my sb32pnp and usr pnp cards so all i have is the
driver for the sb and everything works great!
of course, you have to choose a non-pnp os in the bios setup.
hope this helps! :),

I helped a friend of my with this a couple of weeks ago... I hope I can
remember.
Install isapnptools (it's in admin). Run pnpdump and redirect it's output
to /etc/isapnp.conf (I think that's the name, read
/usr/doc/isapnptools/*). Now come's the "tricky" part: open that file,
select ONE configuration for your modem, and run /etc/init.d/isapnp.
Selecting one configuration means de-commenting one of the possible
configurations that set IRQ, DMA, and stuff like that. Place special
attention to properly balanced ('s and )'s (I missed this one the first
time, and the thing wouldn't work). Now use minicom to test your modem.
IHTH,

You should be able to fire up the dselect program and select it and have it installed.

Have you tried to set it up at all yet? Some PnP modems will work if you simply use the ioport and irq settings used by your Pnp OS. Some modems (a.k.a. winmodems) will never work with Linux; others may be able to be configured with the "isapnptools" package. Use dselect to download and configure isapnptools if you decide to try it. > > Also I heard good things about Midnight Commander, Where > can I get a Linux version ? Again, use dselect to get the package "mc". --Bob -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
