Hi,
I'm in the process of installing a WinModem from Agere/Lucent on Debian
Lenny.
According to scanModem the modem's PCI ID is 11c1:048c.
Knowing this I successfully installed the driver from
agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100106_i386.deb onto my system.
Inserting the created kernel modules (agrmodem & agrserial) don't give
any errors in /var/log/messages.
After confirming that /dev/ttyAGR3 exists and creating symbolic links to
it (/dev/ttySAGR & /dev/modem) I try to run wvdialconf to confirm that
everything went correctly.
But unfortunatly wvdialconf returns the following:
box:/home/me# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.
Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 9600 baud, next try: 115200 baud
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- and failed too at 115200, giving up.

Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?
Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wiki/?WvDial
If you still have problems, send mail to <wvdial-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx>.
I tried changing kernels, 2.6.30 and 2.6.32, both have the same
behaviour ( 2.6.26 won't compile citing an error in a struct definition).
Also tried various boot parameters: pci=pollirq pci=routeirq pci=noacpi
and disabling the on-board soundcard.
And i tried older versions of the driver
(agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20090905_i386.deb) and compiling by hand
(agrsm048pci-2.1.60_20100108.tar.gz)
Seeing as there are no error message I don't know where to look for a
problem, can anyone point me in the right direction?
P.S. I don't quite understand the relationship between the agrsm driver
and ALSA, should my modem be listed in /proc/asound/cards ? Because it
currently reports: --- no soundcards ---
