[LUG] external modem trouble!

["Lee Quick" <lee.quick@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

just treated myself to an external (hardware) based modem to replace my
internal HSF, intel chipset MD566x and it dont work! tried Suse 8.2 no dice
and mandrake 9.2 (detected but strange behaviour).
went to windows XP opened a hyperterminal and threw a few AT commands at it
and it works.

in suse modprobe fails on boot with char major-212?
this is quite annoying because i was under the impression that all REAL
external serial modems worked more or less faultless in linux any
help/thoughts would be useful.

cheers.

lee.
