I've discovered an update to Linmodems' Page about Lucent Modem for the 2.2 and 2.4 kernels ( http://walbran.org/sean/linux/stodolsk/ ). I'm a Debian user (potato, kernel version 2.2.17) and I installed successfully ltmodem driver. When I used 2.2.12 kernel, original ltmodem driver was perfect. But this last one driver doesn't run. At Sean's page above, there was an information: "If the installation goes smoothly, but you get a 'No Dialtone' response from the modem, you might be able to fix it by changing the BIOS Plug-n-Play settings: select "non-PNP OS" or "Other OS" rather than the (probable default) "PNP OS" or "Windows." Check also if the modem has a nonzero IRQ value by issuing the command lspci -vv and looking for your modem card in the output." I have a Compaq Armada 1500C and I get a NO DIALTONE from modem, but I can't change BIOS settings (there isn't these options). Have you any suggestion?
Thanks a lot! Carlos Menezes.
