Eric, The modem has a Lucent/Agere/LSI Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal processing) chipset. Support packages for 2.6.n kernels are at: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/ Get the latest martian driver martian-full-20080625.tar.gz http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/martian-full-20080625.tar.gz $ tar -zxvf martian-full-20080625.tar.gz $ cd martian-full-20080625/ $ make all $ su password # make install For automation you may do as root user # cd scripts # ./automate.sh* will set up the martian modem to automatically run when booting up. # exit $ su - password # modprobe martian_dev # martian_modem Fire up another terminal or tab session become root again $ su - password: # wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf should find the modem port which by default will be /dev/ttySM0 edit wvdial.conf by adding your ISP's phone number , your username, password, add a line Carrier Check = no and Stupid Mode = 1. You may comment put "#' or a ";" in front of Stupid Mode = 1, this will depend on your ISP and if it connects without it. an example of wvdial.conf follows: # cat /etc/wvdial.conf [Dialer Defaults] Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 Modem Type = Analog Modem Phone = 7072000 ISDN = 0 Username = your_usernaem_to_connect_to_your_ISP Init1 = ATZ Password = your_password_goes_here Modem = /dev/ttySM0 Baud = 460800 Carrier Check = no Stupid Mode = yes ; AutoDNS = yes Regards, Antonio --- On Thu, 7/10/08, Eric Bunton <ugotemailed@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > From: Eric Bunton <ugotemailed@xxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Eric, USA Fedora release 9 (Sulphur) Kernel kernel 2.6.25.9-76.fc9.i686 > To: discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Date: Thursday, July 10, 2008, 7:02 PM > Only plain text email is forwarded by the > Discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx List Server, > as HTML can contain viruses.
