I have a DiamondMM Supra Express 33.6k PNP modem I'm trying to
configure. But I can't get the thing to work. No matter what settings
I use I get a conflict on the IO port:
"Fatal - resource conflict allocating 8 bytes of IO at 2E8 (see
isapnp.conf)"
Of course this is just one of the many messages. Seems no IO port is
good enough for it. I've tried every resource that pnpdump output for
me. I looked in /proc/interrupts to be sure not to try any IRQ's that
conflict. I looked in /proc/ioports to try and track down the io
conflict. Some of the ports like the 2e8 above, are only used by
"seraial (auto)"... can't I make that go away, I want a modem to appear
instead of a useless serial port... or am I going about this from the
wrong angle?
THen I remembered, from when I actually had this working long, long ago,
that I had to use setserial. So I tried some of the non-serial ports
like 0200 but it gives me the same error. The only thing even close is
0220. The descriptive lines in my isapnp.conf file that was output by
pnpdump, say that the card needs 8 IO addresses... so should that only
be 0200-0208?
Any help is appreciated... I'd really like to get to the bottom of this
whole serial port thing and how it all works... so any resources are
greatly appreciated. As are quick miracle answers <grin>
