you need to install smartlink-softmodem, should be on dvd or cd6 or: ftp://ftp.leo.org/mirrors/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.1/non-oss-inst-source/suse/i586/ please reopen if there are still problems. I had it installed already. However smartlink-softmodem-kmp-default-2.9.10_2.6.16.13_4-44 contains only slusb.ko and not slamr.ko which is suggested by hwinfo and as well mentioned in /usr/share/doc/packages/smartlink-softmodem/README Perhaps missing module in the package? That's not a bug, that's a feature - compare bug 153112. A question to you packagers: Why don't you use defines in the SPEC-files? So anyone interested in "violating" software could compile the rpm by himself easily. I have modified smartlink-softmodem.spec accordingly (but won't publish it). That mechanism seems to work for gstreamer-mad, for instance, why not here? |
I've got HP/Compaq nx7000 laptop with integrated modem. It has been recognised on installation and configured as "modem0". However kinternet doesn't work and says something about incorrect option (not too specific). I guess it's because the device it tries to open doesn't exist. After some investigation I realised that /dev/modem points to /dev/ttySL0 that isn't there. Apparently a missing module. I did hwinfo --modem and got: # hwinfo --modem 21: PCI 1f.6: 10204 LinModem [Created at pci.300] UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_8086_24c6 Unique ID: ORVU.xPo6n5plJR6 SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.6 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:1f.6 Hardware Class: modem Model: "Compaq 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x24c6 "82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Modem Controller" SubVendor: pci 0x0e11 "Compaq Computer Corporation" SubDevice: pci 0x0860 Revision: 0x01 Driver: "Intel ICH Modem" Device File: /dev/ttySL0 Device Number: char 212:0 I/O Ports: 0x4400-0x44ff (rw) I/O Ports: 0x4800-0x487f (rw) IRQ: 10 (1844147 events) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d000024C6sv00000E11sd00000860bc07sc03i00" Driver Info #0: Driver Status: slamr is not active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe slamr" Driver Info #1: Driver Status: snd_intel8x0m is active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe snd_intel8x0m" Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Suggested module slamr.ko doesn't exist.
