Re: [PLUG] Motorola SM56 modem not detected and depmod error


 
My main problem is that  wvdial can't detect my modem.
Also Red Hat 7.3 PPP dialer says says no modem was found on your system.

Suspect main problem is old driver package (SM56_5.1_I386.rpm)
that was tested to work only in Red Hat 7.1
I also tried (sm56-85.1-10.i386.rpm) which I think worked with
RH 7.2 from my search on Internet.

I think non-conformant driver package causes seg fault
when try to load sm56 module.

[root@localhost root]# modprobe sm56
Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/char/sm56.o
will taint the kernel: no license
Segmentation fault

My /etc/wvdial.conf looks like this

[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyS1
Baud = 57600
SetVolume = 4
Dial Command = ATDT
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = AT&F&D2&C1V1S0=0E0
Init3 = ATS7=60\T0M1\N7%C1\Q3*LS1X4
Phone = 144000
Password = hidden
Username = hidden
FlowControl = XONXOFF

[Dialer connect]
Phone = 144000
Password = hidden
Username = hidden
Stupid Mode = 0

I tried other ports  as well...... /dev/sm56 as one artical on web suggests
amd /dev/modem.Windows detected modem on COMM3 which would be
/dev/ttyS2 in Linux but I haven't tried this yet.

[root@localhost floppy]# wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.41
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyS1: No such device

--> Cannot open /dev/sm56: No such device

--> Cannot open /dev/modem: No such device

this is the modem log generated when I connected to Internet
with Win98 dial up networking tools using same modem
I have used Init2 and Init3 strings in wvdial.conf from here.
