Description Wilken Gottwalt 2005-08-30 12:01:19 UTC 
The pcmcia modem MC221 Discovery V.90 (Data/Fax) don't get recognized by Yast or
by hwinfo. It even makes a Dell Inspiron 8200 hang if plugged in and makes it
hard reboot if plugged out.

SL9.3 recognizes it as [see log], and it seems to work under SL9.3.

There is bug 113336 about ltmodem support dropped in 10.0.
Comment 3 Wilken Gottwalt 2005-08-30 12:37:46 UTC 
So it isn't supported anymore?
Comment 4 Steffen Winterfeldt 2005-08-30 12:45:43 UTC 
seems so
Comment 5 Wilken Gottwalt 2005-08-30 12:53:46 UTC 
So we are going to tell the customers: No, you can't use your modem anymore,
just throw it away!?

This is not really a solution, I got a bunch of different cards here, which are
ltmodems... There are also notebooks which got them as an internal version...

If you had looked more closely, you had seen that the device is not detected at
all. I mean the PCI device itself, not the modem behind it. No PCI event. Same
on three different laptops where other cardbus cards work flawlessly.

==> broken HW
