Hi
Has anyone had any experience of using an Option (www.option.be) PC-Card modem?
I have just got a s/h Libretto 50 and it came with one.
I'm just using tip(1) to talk to the modem and get it to log onto a 3.1-R box
running a getty on its modem. The line I'm using in /etc/remote is,
cuaa3f:dv=/dev/cuaa3f:br#115200
and the modem settings all look sane (i.e. CTS/RTS is on). The modem will dial
and I get the getty banner, I can type the login name but the connection
appears to hang when I type my password in. If I try an account with hasn't got
a password it freezes at the shell prompt. Under Win 95 the same modem works
fine and I can log into the 3.1-R using hyperterm fine.
The Libretto has 3.1-R with PAO-19990515 patches.
Any suggestions on where to start, this is the first time I've used PC-Cards
under FreeBSD so tips on configuration would be welcome.
Thanks
Duncan
PS. All kudos to those involved with PAO and the PC-Card stuff - it impressed
the hell out of the Windows lovers at work when the day after I took delivery
of the Libretto FreeBSD was running.
PPS. I've seen rumours that someone is working on the Adaptec 1460 driver, the
Libretto came with one and I offer myself to help/carry one the work.
