Hi Mike,
I have been working on the Intel (536ep) modem.
I have a dual boot machine Windows xp one side Linux slackware the other
side.
I have installed the Intel modem on the Xp side.
It shows that the modem is a PCI modem using irq 11 at address
0xe0000000 and the PCI location 00:13.0
I have not been successful with the Linux kernel it crashes.
Lspci -v shows the modem at irq 11 and an address of 0xfb290.
I tried using setserial /dev/ttys2 irq 11 port 0xfb290 autoconfig.
Another interesting command is scanpci -v. Still no luck.
And then starting a minicom session but no luck.
I guess I need some kernel compile pointers.
Thanks Mike,
John Mansfield

Subject: [frgeek-michiana] Modems
I have successfully compiled VL 4.3 drivers for the following:
Lucent/Agere LTModem
Driver should support Lucent Apollo (ISA) and Mars (PCI) DSP chipsets.
Lucent AMR modems and Agere soft Modems are not supported by this
driver.
I have tested with the Mars chipset and a couple of Compaq and a Gateway
modems using this chipset.
I have been unable to find a free Rockwell/Conexant driver for Linux
that
will work with the 2.6 kernels. Linuxant seems to be the only show in
town.
($10 download, not redistributable)
We should also be able to compile some smartlink, intel, and pctel
drivers
with the 2.6 kernel but, I haven't gotten that far.
