Okay. Another feeble attempt. First of all, it would appear that /etc/pcmcia.config is now /etc/default/pcmcia. At least, all of the options your pcmcia.config file suggested are there (e.g. PCMCIA="yes"). All the settings were configured correctly.
Also, I just want to make sure that I'm not doing something totally stupid: When I type in "pon", I should hear my local dial tone, the DTMF tones of my ISP, a handshake, and then nothing.... right? And if not for "pon", for "wvdial", right? Okay, I'm still not having any luck, but I think I found a conflict. Cardmgr and cardctl seem to find my card with no problems. My "cardctl status" is: : Socket 0: : 5V 16-bit PC Card : function 0: [ready], [bat dead], [bat low], [req attn] : Socket 1: : no card My "cardctl ident" is: : Socket 0: : product info: "Global Village Communication, Inc.", "K56flex Modem", "K56flex Fax/Modem : PC Card", "Una Mas!" : manfid: 0x018c, 0x0104 : function: 2 (serial) : Socket 1: : no product info available I've added this information to my config.opts, substituting /product info/ with /card/. Now, the only lines of value (value being anything other than "IN from bad port ### at ca2c4xxx) in my "dmesg" is: : isapnp: No Plug & Play device found : Serial driver version 5.05c (2001-07-08) with MANY_PORTS SHARE_IRQ SERIAL_PCI ISAPNP : enabled : ttyS00 at port 0x03f8 (irq = 22) is a 16450 When I type "cardctl insert", or when cardmgr is started on bootup, between the first beep and the second beep, I get: : panda:~# cardctl eject : tty00 unloaded : panda:~# cardctl insert : panda:~# isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards... : isapnp: No Plug & Play Device found : Serial driver version 5.05c (2001-07-08) with MANY_PORTS_SHARE_IRQ SERIAL_PCI ISAPNP : enabled : ttyS00 at port 0x03f8 (irq = 22) is a 16450 : ttyS: 1 input overrun(s) : Usage: getty (yadda yadda yadda) : (getty spawns like a rabbit) What I find interesting, though, is that my "cardctl config" is: : Socket 0: : Vcc 5.0V Vpp1 0.0V Vpp2 0.0V : interface type is "memory and I/O" : irq 22 [exclusive] [level] : speaker output is enabled : function 0: : config base 0x1040 : option 0x47 status 0x08 pin 0x00 ext 0x00 : io 0x03f8-0x03ff [8bit] : Socket 1: : not configured To me, it looks like my actual serial port (printer/modem) on ttyS0 is sharing an interrupt with my pcmcial modem. Could this be why pon and wvdial can't ever find a modem? In my naivity to GNU/Linux, what I really want to do is find the device to which my pcmcia card is attached (so, for example /dev/pcmcia) and link it to /dev/modem. Now, /dev/pcmcia might be something like /dev/ttyS1 or who knows what else. How do I find out what device my pcmcia modem is? Or am I just taking the wrong tack here in this line of thought? I can feel that it's something close. I just don't know what it is, so I keep overlooking it. The question is "what is _it_ ???". Thanks, again, for any advice that's on offer.
