hi, I am trying to set up modem to access Internet. I have dual boot system with Win98 and Reh Het 7.3 (2.4.18-3) modem works OK when connecting to Internet using Win98 dial up networking tools. This is my modem details Its SM56 PCI Motorola Speakephone modem. [root@localhost scanModem]# lspci |grep SM56 PCI 00:09.0 Communication controller: Analog Devices SM56 PCI modem Subsystem: Analog Devices SM56 PCI modem Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 5 Memory at e7000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 [root@localhost floppy]# cat /proc/pci|grep SM56 PCI Bus 0, device 9, function 0: Communication controller: PCI device 11d4:1805 (Analog Devices) (rev 0). IRQ 5. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=1.Max Lat=255. Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe7000000 [0xe70000ff]. I have a problem in that wvdial can't detect my modem. When use Red Hat 7.3 PPP dialer (Internet Configuration Wizard) Modem probing says no modem was found on your system [root@localhost scanModem]# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial1.conf Scanning your serial ports for a modem. ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- nothing. ttyS1<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- ATQ0 V1 E1 -- nothing. Port Scan<*1>: S2 S3 S4 S5 S6 S7 S8 S9 .............................. Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program? Did you configure it properly with setserial? I already have driver for my Motorola PCI SM56 Speakerphone (data/fax/voice) modem.I got driver files from same site http://e-www.motorola.com/collateral/SM56_DRIVERS.html I am using driver package http://e-www.motorola.com/collateral/SM56_5.1_I386.rpm [root@localhost root]# rpm -Uvh SM56_5.1_I386.rpm [root@localhost root]# sm56setup 679 Motorola SM56 SoftModem Setup for Linux Building driver... `/usr/local/sm56/sm56.o' -> `/lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/char/sm56.o' Creating device /dev/sm56...

I tried using fixscript from http://www.heby.de/ltmodem (don't know if I need it) but coudn't get it to run. Do I also need an updated serial driver!! This is what dmesg shows............. Serial driver version 5.05c (2001年07月08日) with MANY_PORTS MULTIPORT SHARE_IRQ SERIAL_PCI ISAPNP enabled ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A no trace of ppp support or pppd daemon on my system. I thought ppp support was provided by default by RH7.3 kernel I have searching using google for almost 2 weeks, had subscribed to close to dozen mailing lists but still no progress. Any help would be much appreciated.
