Hi, I have a generic 56K PCI modem supplied with my system. I was assured by the vendor that this was not a winmodem. The documentation that was supplied with the modem is not for a PCI modem so I can't trust anything it says. The only thing I know about this modem is that it has Lucent chipset and claims to be a MDP7800-U as far as windows is concerned.
On linux, I setserial recognizes it on /dev/ttyS3 after I tell it that it is on irq 10 and give it the ioport of 0xdc00. It lists the UART correctly. stty -a </dev/ttyS3 gives a sensible response. However, I can't get any response out of any comm programs when I try to connect to the modem device. Is there something special I have to do, is this kind of device not supported, or did I get screwed by the vendor and get a winmodem anyway? How do I tell? Thanks, Eric Stern
