(linux) xchè non si installano i driver x il modem???

[asghan]

ciao
ho da poco installato linux mandrake 9.1
purtroppo quando provo ad installare i driver mi da sempre lo stesso errore
visto che non conosco linux volevo chiedervi se potevate aiutarmi a capire ed eventualmente spiegarmi come poter risolvere il problema
gli unici driver che ho trovato per il mio modem Trust PCI con chip intel536ep sono quelli x la mandrake 9.0


questo è quello che ho fatto

1. LICENSE

IMPORTANT - read the file "LICENSE.txt" for the INTEL SOFTWARE LICENSE
AGREEMENT BEFORE COPYING, INSTALLING OR USING.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Release Notes

This release supports 2.4.x kernels.

This release is not compatible with kernels prior to 2.4.

The 536EP corecode binary was compiled with gcc version 3.2

v92 support added: modem on hold AT command set,
PCM upstream, v44, and quick connect are implemented.

Linux Compatability tests are performed on the latest or previous
versions of the following distributions: Mandrake, RedHat, and SuSE

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. INSTALLATION

Prerequisites:
1. root access
2. bash shell to run install scripts
3. a 536EP modem
4. KERNEL SOURCE HEADERS FOR THE KERNEL YOU ARE RUNNING.
and programming development tools installed as well

6 steps to install
1. login as ROOT
2. extract the archive into a directory with "tar -zxvf <archivename>.tgz"
3. cd into the directory it created.
4. Type: make clean
5. Type: make 536ep
6. Type: make install


Please examine the 536ep-inst script if you have a different distribution.

The driver is split in two. A serial driver and core driver.
The core driver must be loaded first since the serial driver depends on it.
The serial driver registers itself as character device
major number 240, minor number 1.


ATTENTION: if the driver compiles but the script just wont work for you.
Here are the bare minimum steps to get your modem to work.

0. log in as root.
1. insmod -f 536epcore.o
2. insmod -f 536ep.o
2a. you can start "hamregistry" at this point if you wish.
3. rm /dev/536ep
4. mknod /dev/536ep c 240 1 (note "240" is the default, if it does not
work see what /proc/devices says 536ep's major number is)
5. ln -s /dev/536ep /dev/modem
6. start a comm application like minicom and use the modem.
7. see section 3 (International Users) for info on setting the correct
country settings.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. FILE DESCRIPTIONS

536ep-inst installation script to install 536ep modules and supporting files


files copied to /lib/modules/(kernel-version)/misc
536epcore.o driver core code module
536ep.o pseudo serial driver for 536ep, depends on 536epcore.o

files copied to /etc/rc.d/... (path differes per distribution)
536ep-boot boot scrip to start and stop 536ep modules

files copied to /usr/sbin
hamregistry hamregistry is the "registry" like tool that the modem uses to
get and store persistant data such as county info and profile strings.

files copied to /etc
hamregistry.bin file that stores the initial persistant data for modem.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. INTERNATIONAL USERS

hamregistry will store the last country setting you
set in the modem.

in minicom (or equivalent comm application)
the commmand to change country setting is "AT+GCI="
the command takes a t.35 country code in hexadecimal.
below is a list of currently supported t.35 country codes.
you can also put this "AT" command in the init string of
the comm application you are using.

if you are a CTR-21 country I think you should be able to
choose a CTR-21 country on the list and be ok. but
that's no guarantee.
The same goes for countries that are "USA" compatable.
(this table also exist in the source file wwh_dflt.c that
ships with the 536epcore driver)

inspect the wwh_dflt.c file provided to find out what your country's t.35 code is.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Thanks to the following beta testers for .....
and all of the helpful Linux HaM users
around the world and at www.linmodems.org

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Security issues

the 536ep-inst and 536ep-boot file install the files and device nodes as
root for the owner and group.
this will cause problems for those who want to user the modem to dialout
using an account other than root.

In SuSE, "dialout" is the group used to install the files and device node.
This way, anyone belonging to the "dialout" group can use the modem to dialout.
(take a look at /etc/group)

I did not want the script to allow full access of the modem to everyone without
"root" knowing.

Edit the 536ep-boot and 536ep-inst scripts to fit your needs.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Compile issues
a. this driver will now compile with the this path:
/lib/modules/<kernel version>/build/include
the 2.4.4+ kernels says to copy the /boot/vmlinuz.version.h
over to the kernel build path. I have the makefile do this
if this file exists. You must install the kernel source
code anyways. It should be on your distribution's CD.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. What is the Hamregistry?
The hamregistery is an application that stores data for the 536ep driver onto
the disk. hamregistry stores information from the driver that needs to
persist from reboot to reboot such as you current country setting.
The 536ep-inst install script and the 536ep-boot script start this utility
automatically for you.
If this tool is not present when the driver gets used your profile,
quickconnect, and current country setting will not be saved but the driver
should still work fine. The only step that would need to be done is to
make sure that the driver is set to the correct country with
at+gci= (see section 5)


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. What's v92 and v44?

a. modem on hold: (ISP and your ISP dialer must also support this)
This will allow you to pause your ppp connection to answer an incoming
call. You will need call waiting, dialer, and ISP support for this to
work. When you are done with the call you can resume your ppp connection
without having to reconnect. The AT command set for this feature exist
in the driver.

b, pcm upstream:
(ISP must also support this, as of version 4.32 I
dont know any ISP's that do)
This will allow faster upload speeds.
to enable: at+pig=0
to disable: at+pig=1

c. quickconnect:
Once you make a call to a v92 modem, your phoneline characteristics are
stored. Whenever you make a new v92 connection it will use this data
to make the call negotiation quicker (approx 10 seconds).
to enable: at+pqc=0 at+pss=0
to disable: at+pss=2

d. v44: (ISP must also support this)
A better compression protocol than v42 which can give you better transfer
speeds.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. The Hamregistry tool

The hamregistry tool is used to provide persistance of settings across
reboots. The haminst and hamboot scripts automatically setup and start
the hamregistry background task for the modem to use.
The hamregistry tool has command line arguments for those who wish to
customize persistant settings. To use these command lines
you must first stop the driver with "bash hamboot stop".
Once the driver has been stopped you may run hamregistry with one of these
arguments to store into the /etc/hamregistry.bin persistance file:
(supply value for items in < >)
-mfg <Modem manufactures name>
-mod <Modem model name>
-hookflash <0,1,2>
hookflash method: 0=(default)without tone 1=with tone 2=reserved
-v92rptopt <0,1>
control v92 reporting: 0=PCM upsteam only 1=(default) all v92
-gpio_lpohd <0,1>
Handset Hook detection: 0=not supported 1=(default)supported
-currentcountry <t.35 code>

This info is written to the /etc/hamregistry.bin file.
If hamregistry.bin exists along with the installation files, haminst will
copy it to /etc/hamregistry.bin when installing the modem.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Known Bugs/Issues

a. If you see this message
"536ep:rs_open: DSP did not reset. try again or restart computer"
and you KNOW you have a HaM modem installed
Disable "PNP OS" in your bios. There is a problem with the driver and
linux PNP. After a time, Linux PNP will disable the card and the driver
currently can not reenable itself.
b. Be aware that the build replaces your
/lib/module/<kernver>//build/include/linux/version.h file with
/boot/vmlinuz.version.h
(this is what Linus T. told me to do with a compiler error)
c. There may be an incompatibility with DevFS. The 536ep device may be located
in /dev/tts/536ep
instead of /dev/536ep. Be aware of this and link /dev/modem to the 536ep
device that corresponds to your setup.
e. Incase you are having problems making a ppp connection try using wvidal
with this information below. execute the script and it will have wvdial
make the ppp connection

------my script----------------------
#! /bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd -detach lock asyncmap 00000000 \
defaultroute debug /dev/modem 57600 \

Sembra che non hai installate le sorgenti del kernel.

Cos'hai nella cartella /usr/src ?

Ciao

[l.golinelli]

ESATTO non hai i sorgenti... I driver vanno benissimo io li ho installati da 10 giorni e il Modem è perfetto ;)

dove trovo i sorgenti, come si installano :confused:

[asghan]

ciao e grazie x l’aiuto :)

ho installato i sorgenti, almeno credo
ora nella directory usr/src ci sono questi queste 3 directory
linux
linux-2.4.21-0.13mdk
RPM

quindi ho provato a reinstallare i driver (vedi sotto) ma alla fine mi da ancora errori :muro:

ho anche provato a controllare
dal centro di controllo mankrake x vedere se era cambiato qualcosa
ma il modem (fa ancora compagnia alle altre due periferiche)
risulta ancora sconosciuto :cry:

ciao

intendi dire così........ ho sbagliato qualcosa???

[root@localhost root]# modprobe 536ep

ora finalmente posso rispondervi anche con "linux"

grazie x l'aiuto :)

Tanto x raccontare anch'io vi dico di essere riuscito ad installare un modem Intel536ep. Ora navigo ma sto avendo grossi problemi con la post. Dice di non trovare il 'localhost' anche quando sono conneso....

...continuerò a provare...troppo bello...

[l.golinelli]

Quando mi disconnetto va a culo la Rete e devo riavviare, per il resto tutto bene... :)

Tu dici la posta tra Computer via LAN o via KMail? :)

viA kMAIL (o qualsiasi client posta). Non ho una rete.

...accidenti...Win98 mi sta diventando di nuovo simpatico... :cry:

[l.golinelli]

Per quello va bene... Ossia il modem va benissimo in tutto il problema è solo quello sopra accennato...

Non dire che Win 98 è meglio perchè sto male... :D

heh ;) eppure è quasi vero...

Cmq...sono riuscito a renistallare il modem ed ora riesco a navigare E mandare la posta. Ho installato il plug-in Flash x Mozilla. Ed ho scaricato un nuovo theme per Mozilla.

Ma sono troppo abituato al mio caro, fido Win98. Mi ci trovo bene. Ed è velocissimo sui PC di oggi.

Inisisto con Linux 'solo' perché *gratuito* e quindi mi potrà tornare utile in futuro.

Apprezzo la qualità della distro Mandrake ma ancora non ha la facilità di Windows - ma ripeto...insisterò perché secondo me le cose stanno cambiando a favore di Linux...

vabbé...alla prossima (da Linux spero) :cool:
