Stuart,
The modem in 00:1f.6 slot
Class 0703: 8086:24c6 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM
Primary device ID: 8086:24c6
Subsystem PCI_id 1014:0524
Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics:
from Archives: SIL27, an LSI/AgereSystems
is recognized from frimware readout
as a SIL27, an LSI/AgereSystems type from archival data.
But the ALSA tools on which its function depends failed to get a
diagnostic readout.
Within the The /proc/asound/pcm file , there should have been an
additional line like
01-00 modem something.
The problem is that the
Modem interrupt assignment and sharing for Interrupt (IRQ) 11
11: 98534 XT-PIC-XT uhci_hcd:usb1, uhci_hcd:usb2,
uhci_hcd:usb3, ehci_hcd:usb4, yenta, yenta, wifi0, eth0, Intel 82801DB-ICH4,
radeon@pci:0000:01:00.0
have so many devices, that the kernel couldn't apportion resources
Consequently during
--- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:1f.6 ----
[ 30.160500] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1f.6[B] -> Link [LNKB] -> GSI 11
(level, low) -> IRQ 11
[ 30.160511] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1f.6 disabled
and the modem cannot be functional unless 0000:00:1f.6 is enabled.
Running a few trials with lesser loads on the kernel, may improve this
situation.
After each bootup, do
$ cat /proc/asound/pcm
$ dmesg | grep 00:1f.6
to check for the appearance of a modem line, or rerun scanModem for
more details.
Until 0000:00:1f.6 is enabled, the modem will not be responsive!!!
Trial 1)
Before the next boot into Linux, disconnect all the USB devices and
take out any cards from the PCMCIA slot.
If that doesn't help, read the Bootup.txt, but don't try anything else yet. Do:
$ lspci >> sk.txt
$ echo >> sk.txt
$ lspci -n >> sk.txt
$ echo >> sk.txt
$ dmesg >> sk.txt
and send us the sk.txt
That will provide details from which we can specify reductions of
other bootup services.
