Jacques, Sorry for the confusion. My laptop is new but came with linpus. I switch to ubuntu and have not installed windows in it. I have installed conexant driver and managed to get thro to ISP server. However, in Malaysia, there is ISP for dialup which requres no username/password as it is charged directly to phone line. Is it possible to tweak wvdial.conf so that I do not need to enter username/password. If I leave them empty, connection fails. My new problem: now my wireless connection disappeared. Network manager cannot detect wireless connection now after my dialup modem setup. Error message was : siocgifflags - no such device. Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks. kklam ----- Original Message ---- From: Jacques Goldberg <Jacques.Goldberg@xxxxxxx> To: Lam Kuan Kin <k2lam@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, January 27, 2008 3:31:40 PM Subject: Re: Which chipset identified Lam, I do not understand this message. In your first message http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg00345.html you sent ModemData.txt In my reply http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-eighth/msg00351.html I explained that the chipset is not known but probably supported by ONE of the Linuxant HSF driver OR the SmartLink driver. I told you how to find which modem you have by using Windows, but I see no reply from you to that question. Finally I wrote that you can try first the HSF and then the SmartLink driver if the HSF does not work. I do not see any additional message from Marv, such as what you quote. I can GUESS, but I am not sure, that Marv may have wanted to tell you that you can get the instructions how to install the HSF driver by making scanModem believe that you have an HSF modem: ./scanModem test 8086:284b 17aa:20ac With this command scanModem works as IF you had an HSF modem and therefore writes in Conexant.txt how to install the driver. This does NOT establish that you modem is a Conexant. Now please read what you have written and explain what this means! Did you expect that the command ./scanModem test 8086:284b 17aa:20ac will transform your unknown modem into a Conexant modem?
