Jose,
Try to add the following to /etc/rc.d/init.d/slmodemd
after the
start () {
if ! [[ -e $SLMODEMD_DEVICE ]] &> /dev/null; then
{
echo -n "Creating devices ..."
mkdir -p /dev
mknod -m 600 /dev/slamr0 c 242 0 ; mknod -m 600 /dev/slamr1 c 242 1 ;
mknod -m 600 /dev/slamr2 c 242 2 ; mknod -m 600 /dev/slamr3 c 242 3 ;
echo -n
mknod -m 600 /dev/slusb0 c 243 0 ; mknod -m 600 /dev/slusb1 c 243 1 ;
mknod -m 600 /dev/slusb2 c 243 2 ; mknod -m 600 /dev/slusb3 c 243 3 ;
echo -n ||
{
echo "failed."
exit -1
}
}
fi
cat /proc/modules | grep 'ungrab_winmodem' >/dev/null ||
{
echo -n "Ungrabbing winmodem from kernel ... "
modprobe ungrab-winmodem && echo "done." ||
{
echo "failed."
exit -1
}
}
cat /proc/modules | grep 'slamr' >/dev/null ||
{
echo -n "Loading SmartLink Modem driver into kernel ... "
modprobe slamr && echo "done." ||
{
echo "failed."
exit -1
}
and before line that says
echo -n "Starting SmartLink Modem driver for $SLMODEMD_DEVICE: "
$prog </dev/null >/dev/null 2>/dev/null \
--country=$SLMODEMD_COUNTRY $SLMODEMD_OPTS /dev/$SLMODEMD_DEVICE &
RETVAL=$?
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && success $"$prog startup" || failure
$"$prog startup"
echo
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/$prog
return $RETVAL
}
in start procedure. If that fails, run dmesg (send it here) and then
as a last resource setroubleshoot deamon to determine if selinux is ok
with device /dev/slamr0.
Regards,
Antonio
