Re: winmodem driver

2006-03-05 Thread kalin mintchev

what do i need to add to this information to get some help?

 You forgot to tell us WHICH model of ThinkPad concerns you.  Modems in
 older ThinkPads, such as a T21 or A20m may be supported by the
 comms/ltmdm port.

 ok... i have the ltmdm installed. i run the ltmdm.sh. nothing happens.
 i load the ltmdm module manualy with kldload. it's loaded. now what?

 here is what i have for a modem:

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:31:6:class=0x070300 card=0x051a1014 chip=0x24868086
 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
 vendor   = 'Intel Corporation'
 device   = '82801CA/CAM (ICH3-S/ICH3-M) AC'97 Modem Controller'
 class= simple comms
 subclass = generic modem

 the machine is a t30 thinkpad.

 i also have a pcmci 3COM modem card that shows up as:

 sio4: 3Com 3CXM/3CCM556 at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 11 function 0 config 33
 on pccard0
 sio4: type 16550A
 sio4: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode

 not sure what normal mode is. and i don't see it in the pciconf.

 i have a ppp.conf which looks exactly as the one in the handbook. when is
 start ppp after a while i get the propmpt and after that if i type: dial
 _tag_ the machine freezes...

 the pci irqs in the bios are all 11. i guess i have to make them all
 auto?!

 i just need one of these modems... just one

 thanks for any help...

 what do i need to add to this information to get some help?

I may be able to be of limited help, although I have never tried
to configure a PCMCIA modem.  I will endeavor to disregard my
lack of experience.   :)

  You forgot to tell us WHICH model of ThinkPad concerns you.  Modems in
  older ThinkPads, such as a T21 or A20m may be supported by the
  comms/ltmdm port.

  chip=0x24868086
  rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
  vendor   = 'Intel Corporation'
  device   = '82801CA/CAM (ICH3-S/ICH3-M) AC'97 Modem Controller'
  class= simple comms
  subclass = generic modem
 
  the machine is a t30 thinkpad.

The T30's internal modem is not supported, to my knowledge.

  i also have a pcmci 3COM modem card that shows up as:
 
  sio4: 3Com 3CXM/3CCM556 at port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 11 function 0 config 33
  on pccard0
  sio4: type 16550A
  sio4: unable to activate interrupt in fast mode - using normal mode
 
  not sure what normal mode is. and i don't see it in the pciconf.

So with this modem inserted in the card slot, does tip(1) work?

# grep sio4 /etc/remote
sio4|com5:dv=/dev/cuad4:br#9600:pa=none:
# tip sio4
connected
atz  -- type this simple AT command
OK

With the modem plugged in, do you have a /dev/cuad3 entry?  What does 
ls -l /dev/cu* show?  Are you logged in as root?

  i have a ppp.conf which looks exactly as the one in the handbook. when is
  start ppp after a while i get the propmpt and after that if i type: dial
  _tag_ the machine freezes...

The ppp man page is lengthy, but excellent.  It contains a lot of information
that took me several readings to digest, but it was well worth the time.  I
am not an expert in diagnosing ppp problems from logs, but if you can post 
the ppp.log entries you get when you attempt to initiate a ppp connection,
others may be able to help.

RE: winmodem driver

2006-02-25 Thread fbsd_user


Modems are manufactured for two target markets, MS/Windows and
every thing else. Winmodems are cheep because the hardware controller
function is handled by the software you have to install into windows.
This hardware controller function is contained in a chip on the modem
circuit board. Winmodems are missing this chip and have a replacement
chip that directs the modem to use driver software running in the
windows system to perform the controller function. The most common
replacement chip is manufactured by Lucent. There are many versions of
this Lucent chip each version needing a different software driver
version.

Up until version 4.4, FBSD did not have any solution to using
Winmodems, but with the release of 4.4 the ports collection contains
the  Linux Winmodem 'ltmdm' driver which was ported to FBSD.
This port is very poorly documented, only works with a limited
number of Lucent chip version.

You forgot to tell us WHICH model of ThinkPad concerns you.  Modems in 
older ThinkPads, such as a T21 or A20m may be supported by the 
comms/ltmdm port.

I have been unable to find any support for modems in newer ThinkPads, 
such as the T30 and later.  However, somewhere around here I have a
modem-only mini-PCI card that came out of my A20m when I upgraded it
to a mini-PCI combo card with modem and 10/100 fxp NIC.  Both the 
modem-only card and the combo modem/NIC card had supported modem 
chipsets.  Once I can locate the modem-only PCI card I have 
(somewhere), I will try to install it in my T30 and see whether I can 
get modem functionality back.

Now, don't blame me if this fries your laptop or causes other mayhem, 
but if you want to try, you can buy these modem cards pretty cheap on 
eBay.  Based on the part numbers found on IBM's site at

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=ibmlndocid=MIGR-4K6L7B

I would try looking for part number 10L1305 or 08K3146.  You want a
Lucent chipset, since that is what the comms/ltmdm port is written to
support.

Good luck, and please follow up if you find a solution.

Jim

It depends on the chipset of your modem. If it's using a Lucent chip, 
you may get it working by installing the /usr/ports/comms/ltmdm port.

If your winmodem uses Lucent chips the ltmdm port may work for you.

Subject: winmodem

Hello list!

I have an internal winmodem in my laptop, it is a smartlink modem,
and
currently works with the linux driver sources provided at
smlink.com. I
would like to run FreeBSD on my laptop, but I am unsure how to get
this
winmodem working. One possibility I thought of is to use the new
NDIS
wrapper in 5.2-CURRENT with the windows drivers. I only find
examples of
using this with WiFi cards, how can I find out if the windows
drivers
for my modem use NDIS, and whether or not this is possible? Is there
another way to make this thing work?

Thanks.

I don't think building a custom kernel is nessary. And its not a
