Ok, I updated to YDL2.1, I still have problems as I explained in a separate
message but anyway the modem is still not recognaized.
If I now type "lsmod" I get:
[root@fomalhaut]# lsmod
Module Size Used by
serial 51488 1 (initializing)
printer 7056 0
i2c-keywest 5008 0 (autoclean) (unused)
dmasound_pmac 42896 0
i2c-core 14864 0 [i2c-keywest dmasound_pmac]
dmasound_core 13296 0 [dmasound_pmac]
soundcore 5264 3 [dmasound_core]
and "dmesg" gives:
PPP generic driver version 2.4.1
PPP Deflate Compression module registered
...
PowerMac Z8530 serial driver version 2.0
ttyS0 at 0xd98dc020 (irq = 22) is a Z8530 ESCC (cobalt modem)
ttyS1 at 0xd98e3000 (irq = 23) is a Z8530 ESCC
...
The message I got with "wvdial" is exactly the same "modem not responding".
Any ideas?
thanks again,
filippo
