by I recently (ok, yesterday) purchased a Hayes 1-port ESP serial accelerator
"for windows". I guess I shouldn't be too surprised that I'm having
trouble with it in Linux, even though the card is supposed to be backward
compatible with the 16550,16450. I have the card set up as com1 (3F8) using
irq 9 and I am using setserial to tell this to Linux. (Linux does identify
the card as a 16550A upon boot up.) I was previously using my modem on
Com2, so I had to remake the /dev/modem file so it pointed to the right
spot. Using kermit, I can send commands to my modem. I can get it to dial
and everything, but I AM NOT GETTING ANY FEEDBACK FROM THE MODEM.
Is there some other program which tells Linux how to interact with
/dev/modem which I need to change, or is it just impossible to use this
card. I find it hard to believe that if I can send commands to my modem
through this port, that I can't recieve responses back through it. I have
already looked through the FAQ and have not found any help there.
Thanks for any and all help.
