In the course of attempting to get the Lucent Winmodem binary-only module to work with my 2.1r Debian box, I did the following:
Tried kernels 2.2.12, 2.2.14, 2.2.15, even 2.0.36 (it was there <g>) Disabled all integrated peripherals Removed all cards except vid card and modem Removed all cards _and_ disabled all integrated peripherals I kept the kernel images on the drive and tried each one (only tried 2.0.36 once, it generated a LOT of errors) with the same result: Device or resource busy. I had kernel images with _and_ without CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y since someone in the linmodem mailing list archives suggested that setting it to _y_ caused problems(?!). So I'm stumped. The modem I was trying to use had the Mars2 chipset and that's all I know about it, I purchased it new for a crisp $10 -- no manufacturer name on the box, product cleverly named 56K MODEM. I've given up for now; I located an inexpensive external modem. Any more ideas would be helpful, but not critical since I have a sure-fire modem on the way. Thank you for all of the assistance! While I'm here, though, I'd like to criticize binary-only device drivers ;-) Andrew W.
