Re: Maksym, New Zealand kernel 2.6.32-21-generic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Maksym,

The only cogent driver for the CHIP=0x10573055 is the audio+modem
driver snd-hda-intel,
which is complemented by the slmodemd utility.  Thus do not load
either ungrab-winmodem or snd-intel8x0m, which will merely take up RAM
resources.
Try getting your CONNECT without Stupid Mode
#  Stupid Mode = yes
as its usage may undersirably shorten negotiations between your modem & the IP

 Init3 = ATX3
compensates for low phone line voltages (Dialtone detection) and
may/maynot be necessary.

Successes using slmodemd with the snd-hda-intel driver have been getting spotty,
though there have been some under current kernels.  Sadly this List no
longer has anyone who is really knowledgeable with the slmodemd code.
Bug reports have been filed with ALSA concerning the snd-hda-intel
driver component.  Hopefully some fixes will be forthcoming
