Hi Gontran,
I found your post on
http://pluglist.mybutt.net/pipermail/plug-discuss/2002-January/020277.html about Conexant modem on Compaq Presario 1700T. I have this exact hardware model and am trying to get my modem working. If you have a moment to spare, any help would be greatly appreciated.
My bash system couldn't find "lspci," so I used cat /proc/pci, and found the following:
Bus 2, device 4, function 0:
Communication controller: Conexant HSF 56k Data/Fax Modem (rev 1).
IRQ 5.
Master Capable. Latency=64.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xd0200000 [0xd020ffff].
I/O at 0x3000 [0x3007].
so I downloaded the HSF lin modem driver from
http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv/hsf/downloads-rh-i686.html (specific file called hsflinmodem-5.03.03.L3mbsibeta02072100k2.4.18_4-1rh.i686.rpm) and the RIPTIDE driver from
http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv/riptide/downloads-rh-i686.html (specific file called riptide-0.3mbsibeta02061200k2.4.18_3-1rh.i686.rpm), and installed both of them with
"rpm -i [file-name].rpm"
the result said that my modem should be accessible as /dev/ttySHSF0 or through the symbolic link /dev/modem.
However, I couldn't get my modem to work...I tried
echo "atdt5555309" > /dev/ttySHSF0
but couldn't hear anything except for a possible (probable!) faint "click." No dialing sounds. Dip didn't work since my system didn't have dip. I'm running Red Hat 7.3 by the way.
Any insights??
Thanks.
