It sounds like the bios is not set to a non plug and play OS and not letting
the BIOS set the card up correctly.  At turn on of puter you should see all
P&P cards set, on screen, by BIOS

Karina and all:

OK, I still have not gotten my stupid plug and play internal modem to work,
and unless someone has a really good idea, I'm giving up and trying an
external.  But here is what I did, perhaps you will have more luck with it,
or maybe someone can tell me what I am doing wrong:

first I used isapnp tools:

/sbin/pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf

then uncommented one choice in the .conf file.  (For me the choice that
didn't give me an error message when I rebooted happened to be IRQ 3 port
0x3e8)

then:

setserial /dev/ttyS2 IRQ 3 port 0x3e8  (with the device and resources of
your choice)

but now, although the machine still insists it can't find a modem.  

Sigh.  I really just wanted a machine that wouldn't crash all the time.  And
although it never ever crashes, I can't get on the internet, which, given
what I do, means all I really use linux for is mahjong.

Hi Karina:

Your problem sounds suspiciously close to mine.  Make sure you don't have a
winmodem, and, once you eliminate that, check if your modem is plug and
play.  If it is I can help you about half way through the nightmare that is
a plug and play modem with Linux.

Hello all,

Linux Newbe... I am having problems Identifying my Modem.

I use Modemtool and select ttys0
Then I use wvdial and it tells me it does not Identify the Modem.

I am kind of at a loss,
is there a way to check the PCMCIA port is linked to COM 1.

Is there a way to check to see if the COM Ports are active.

any help would be great.


Karina

Hi All,

Thanks in advance

Hi,

The following page might help your co-worker: 

  http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Linux+NT-Loader.html

It seems that boots.ini is a hidden file, so you have to
un-hidden it. Also, you have to copy some boot section of
Linux into NT part. This document is written for WinNT.
I hope that this works for Win2K as well.



HTH,
