Yep... I just tried that just moments prior to your email. THANKS!!! That solved it.. I only needed to add:

umodem_load="YES" to my /boot/loader.conf. The rest was automatic...

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply!

Dear Sir,

I am attempting to get a Broad Band Modem working on:

   sony# uname -a
   FreeBSD sony.family.hom 6.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE #2:
Tue Dec 19 16:55:50 EST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SONY01 i386

The device is a Sprint PC5740 pc card. When I perform a "man umodem" the card is listed (vendor = Curitel)

---

As stated (in the umodem man page) this should be recognized as a usb "ucom" device. I stopped the usbd and restarted using "usbd -dv". When I inserted the device I received the following console message:

   sony# usbd -dv &
   [1] 753
   sony# usbd: opened /dev/usb0
   usbd: opened /dev/usb1
   usbd: reading configuration file /etc/usbd.conf
   usbd: opened /dev/usb

   sony# usbd: ctrlr-attach event bus=2
   USB_EVENT_CTRLR_ATTACH
...
   USB_EVENT_DRIVER_ATTACH
   usbd: device-attach event at 1167852828.349083000, Curitel

     vndr=0x106c prdct=0x3701 rlse=0x0000 clss=0x0002 subclss=0x0000
   prtcl=0x0000
     device names: ugen0
   usbd: Found action 'USB device' for Curitel Communications, Inc.,
   Curitel Communications, Inc. at ugen0

Please notice that the last two lines indicate that the device was attached to "ugen0" rather then the "ucom0" that I was expecting (and need).

I tried to make sure the proper devices were available by manually loading them prior to inserting the card. Here are my loaded modules: (See items 4 & 5 below)

   sony# kldstat
   Id Refs Address    Size     Name
    1   13 0xc0400000 47ca94   kernel
    2    1 0xc087d000 45b8     snd_t4dwave.ko
    3    2 0xc0882000 22b88    sound.ko
    4    1 0xc08a5000 3000     uftdi.ko   <<<<
    5    2 0xc08a8000 32a8     ucom.ko    <<<<

    7    1 0xc2c4e000 16000    linux.ko

Any help will be greatly appreciated! Please reply directly as well as to the list. I am not currently subscribed. http://bsdforums.org/forums/showthread.php?t=45602 (More info on my efforts...)

The man page isn't 100% clear, but you need to load both ucom and
umodem to recognize the device.  Try loading umodem and ucom and
then attaching (or detaching and reattaching) the device

The umodem code does have the vendor/product IDs in it that match
the debug info above, so I expect it will be recognized
