    Hy guys!!

    I'm trying to set this PNP Modem on my linux system (8250 chip), and
I do not get it!!!

    I've runned minicom, seyon, etc
    I've setted the right irq, the right DMA (same on windows) and
nothing... under seyon status it gives a error message....

    does somebody knows if this modem cannot run under linux???why??
    if it can run under linux.... what I have to do (if  I didn't try
it...)??

                        Thanks

                                    Valner

Another noWinModem.  Real Modems don't have DMA.

My advice is to write to the manufacturer and ask them if it will work.

I've also got a PnP PCI modem (a Rockwell 560PCI/HCF) - it came with the PC.
I wrote to radicom, and they said it wouldn't work. Radicom make a "PCI
modem" and a "soft modem" - the soft modem is definitely a winmodem, and I
had hoped that the PCI  one wasn't (if you take it out and look at it, it
has more chips than the "soft modem"). I assume then that  it needs a
special device driver, so won't work under Linux. Unfortunately I lack the
technical competence to reverse engineer my win95 drivers, so looks like I
need another modem....
