Is there some way I could debug this? Should I see some kernel messages in the logs? I waited for at least 30s. I even tried in single user mode to be sure that no other process blocks the modem. I also unloaded all irda stuff (by the way this works, so macserial should be ok in principal). > > First thing, check your kernel logs.

My kernel is 2.4.17-ben0 rsynced on 12/28/2001 (image downloaded from debian.jones.dk) I would like to have some hints on how to debug the problem further or on a bullet-proof way of waking up the modem. gaudenz > > You definitely should get the same IRQ values; but IO port may be > different depending on hardwre config and kernel version. > > If you don't get the above, make sure macserial is loaded (and don't > compie standard serial into your kernel), and try again. > > Michel > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Michel Lanners | " Read Philosophy.
