To all debian users, I am sorry to have to post this again, as I am getting EXTREMELY loathe to post my problem as I feel my credibility as being even a "nitwit" (one with at least 2 brain cells working), is being questioned at this point. I have still had no luck at getting my modem recognize or working in Linux. I have installed and used the pppsetup program that was posted here some time back, it made setup scripts like a charm. But unfortunately I still cannot get my modem working. I always end up with the following error coming up: Feb 10 21:07:56 charles pppd[100]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0 Feb 10 21:07:56 charles pppd[100]: tcgetattr: I/O error Feb 10 21:07:56 charles pppd[100]: Exit.
I have been told that this indicates an irq conflict, but when checking my /proc/interrupts, none are listed. I have done a setserial on /dev/ttyS1 (where my modem now resides, COM2 in DOS) and the following is displayed: /dev/ttyS1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 5 The file /proc/interrupts (not copied) shows no devices on irq 5 therefore I cannot figure out where the irq conflict is coming from. My modem is a supra 288i PnP modem, I have used the isapnptools program and have also disabled the PnP in my bios. My modem does not have jumpers that I can set for the irq or for the port settings, and as I would not know what to change, that may be a good thing. I am at a loss as to what to try next. Any and all suggestions are welcome. Charles -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
