Bill, Maybe the automatic installer saw a conflict with slmodem? The modem symbolic link is /dev/modem -> ttySL0 and did not install anything? If an error occurred during installation, please see the sections 'BUGS' and 'REPORTING PROBLEMS' below. Once the modem is installed and configured, you may access it as /dev/ttySHSF0. Additionally, you can use it via the symbolic link /dev/modem (equivalent to ttySHSF0). If you have more than one HSF modem, the second will be available as /dev/ttySHSF1, the third as /dev/ttySHSF2 and so forth. Please review the permissions on the device nodes with "ls -l" to ensure that they are adequate for your system. The "hsfconfig" command can be used to change certain modem configuration options or recompile (generic packages only) the kernel modules after installation. Run "hsfconfig --help" for usage information. http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/install.php Regards, Antonio On Sat, Feb 5, 2011 at 8:21 PM, Bill Eldridge <bthepro@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Thanks for your time and effort. > > I am not aware there is a driver installed? > > I used the installer > (http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/downloads-installer.php) > > I didn't realize it had installed a driver because at the end it gives > me and error (no generic driver) > > How do I check which driver it installed? > > What else do I need in order to use the modem for faxing? > > Thanks again, > Bill > > On Sat, Feb 5, 2011 at 7:18 PM, Antonio Olivares > <olivares14031@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Bill, >> >> You have installed a driver, may I ask which one? >> >> Did you install the generic one: >> >> http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/archive/hsfmodem-7.80.02.06full/hsfmodem_7.80.02.06full_i386.deb.zip? >> >> this one would not work, since your machine is 64 bit:: >> >> CPU=x86_64, Ubuntu , ALSA_version=1.0.23 >> >> There are no generic packages (debian/ubuntu) for 64 bit systems, >> maybe get the tar.gz >> http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/archive/hsfmodem-7.80.02.06x86_64full/hsfmodem-7.80.02.06x86_64full.tar.gz >> >> Another one? >> >> The modem is served by hsfmodem software: >> >> Predictive diagnostics for card in bus 00:10.1: >> Modem chipset detected on >> NAME="Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio " >> CLASS=0403 >> PCIDEV=10de:026c >> SUBSYS=103c:30b7 >> IRQ=21 >> HDA2=00:10.1 >> SOFT=10de:026c.HDA >> ArchivedChip=0x14f12bfa >> CodecClass=14f1 >> IDENT=hsfmodem >> SLMODEMD_DEVICE=hw:0,6 >> Driver=hsfmodem-drivers >> >> For candidate modem in: 00:10.1 >> 0403 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio >> Primary device ID: 10de:026c >> Subsystem PCI_id 103c:30b7 >> Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: >> from Archives: 0x14f12bfa >> >> >> >> Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem >> >> >> For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source >> package with full speed enabled is available, but requires driver >> compiling.
