Howdy! First: I'm trying to get my Palmtop (HP680- Jornada) to dial into my system. My system is a Debian 2.1 machine with an internal Zoom modem jumpered for com3. Although the system has com1/com2 configured, there are no devices on them.
There are two problems. First, I seem to have problems getting /dev/ttyS3 to recognize the modem in the first place. I use the following command to set up the port: /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS3 port 0x03e8 irq 4 Seems simple enough, but a review of /proc/ioports shows nothing: # more ioports 0000-001f : dma1 0020-003f : pic1 0040-005f : timer 0060-006f : keyboard 0080-008f : dma page reg 00a0-00bf : pic2 00c0-00df : dma2 00f0-00ff : npu 01f0-01f7 : ide0 0378-037f : lp 03c0-03df : vga+ 03f0-03f5 : floppy 03f6-03f6 : ide0 03f7-03f7 : floppy DIR 1000-101f : eth0 1400-147f : eth1 This isn't always true. sometimes, after dinking around with various port settings, it'll show up, but it is unreproducable. I double-checked my settings, comparing them to the jumpers on the card, and they are the same. (The fact that I sometiems get it working with these values is proof) --- Second problem. When I do get the modem working, the WinCE palmtop connects, tried to negotiate password, then disconnects without a reason. There is no useful information in the mgetty docs. I followed the win95 documentation that was provided with mgetty. Any ideas would be appreciated, since I'm going on a trip in two days, and it would be nice to be able to check email. Also, if responses could be CCed to my email, it'd be appreciated, since I don't know yet if I'm successfully reading the mailing list. --Mike
