Jacky, Either of your modems should be serviceable under Linux. First try martian - At http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/ the martian-full-20061203.tar.gz Under Linux: $ tar zxf mar*.tar.gz $ cd martian-full-20061203 Look around: $ ls $ make clean $ make all $ su root # make install for setup: # modprobe martain_dev you can get a report like that below with: # dmesg | grep martian [ 4742.716000] martian loaded - 20061202 [ 4742.716000] "martian_dev": detaching 11c1:445 from serial [ 4742.732000] "martian_dev": added device 11c1:445 BaseAddress = 0x2040, CommAddres = 0xd4c660ac, irq = 11 Most of the COMM smarts are provided by: # martian_modem --help # martian_modem --info countries You can skip these two next time # martian_modem --country=us martian: info: Your port is /dev/ttySM0 Sep 23 22:27:40 marvlap-old kernel: [ 4976.240000] "martian_dev": serving irqs in module Sep 23 22:27:40 marvlap-old kernel: [ 4976.240000] "martian_dev": martian_modem is attached.
