I need help with determining modem type

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have no possibility to boot to Windows. Its built-in modem. I have no clue what the manufacturer was, but I remember that 2 yrs ago, when I was using windows, everything was working.
Thanks in advance

 with USB and bridge devices not displayed.
 Please provide any independent information available on your modem.

	If your modem is mounted on an ISA card, scanModem could not access it.
	If an alternative boot into Microsoft windows can be done, do mouse
clicks on:
   Start > Settings > Control Panel > Classical View (for Window XP) > System
> Hardware > Device Manager > Modems > Click on the + > Modem. Double click to
expand the graphic. Manufacturer information may be displayed. For example, CXT
stands for Conexant. Click the Diagnostics Tab. Record any hardware ID or vendor
and device information.
Next do the Query Modem and record the ATI specifications displayed such as:
    ATI3 - Agere SoftModem Version 2.1.22
    ATI5 - 2.1.22, AMR Intel MB, AC97 ID:SIL REV:0x27
Try to identify the modem setup file, with name perhaps MODEM.INF.
If may contain chipset Vendor informaton.

 Completed candidate modem analyses.

 The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev

 Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.3
             and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.3

 Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!

 If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
	 linux-headers-2.6.21-2-686

For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 may be needed to support driver compiling


If a driver compilation files with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example. 
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
$ sudo apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
While some of the files may be on the install CD, others may have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com

For Ubunut feisty, additional packages required were:
 build-essential curl debhelper dpkg-dev g++ g++-4.1 gettext git-core gitk
 html2text intltool-debian kernel-package kernel-wedge libc6-dev
 libcurl3-gnutls libdigest-sha1-perl liberror-perl libstdc++6-4.1-dev
 linux-libc-dev po-debconf rcs tcl8.4 tk8.4

Checking settings of:	/etc/ppp/options


In case of a message like:
   Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth1 eth2 eth2:avah
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

 Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
 should trouble shooting be necessary.
