<DIV>Hi all:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Running RH 8/2.4.18-14, and trying to setup up a creative labs DI5660 56k
ISA modem. The </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>modem works in windows on the same box with IRQ 10, on Com 4, using
hardware flow control, 8 </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, IO range 02E8. Can't get it to work
in RH 8. PPPd won't </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>find it, I have loaded the correct modules (ppp_generic, ppp_async) into
the kernel, and </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>used the setserial program to set the parameters correctly. I am
using a dial out program </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>called wvdial, and when I run the wvdialconf binary that is supposed to
detect the modem, it </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>says that it can't find the modem and on the ttyS3 there is a 'LSR saftey
check engaged' </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>message, and when I run 'setserial -av /dev/ttyS3' (the Com4 port), there
is a message that </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>also says 'LSR safety check engaged'. A little poking around on the
web says this message </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>means the UART settings are off (and they are correctly set to 16650A) or
the ISAPNP module </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>in the kernel is used when it shouldn't be, and that module is not compiled
in.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is not one of those WinModems. What does this LSR message mean, and
how do I get this </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>modem working? The PPP howto and Modem howto does not seem to go into
this.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>TIA<BR>David<BR><A
