[hcflinux] Modem not working on a compaq presario 1211

[Voyageur]

With the latest hcfpcimodem-0.96mbsibeta02062500, the modem still doesn't work,
although it's a conexant lanfinity combo which is supported now.

listmodem says:
MODEM #1:
  PCI CONFIGURATION INFORMATION READ:
     Vendor Id         : 14F1
     Device Id         : 1815

     Sub Device Id     : 0042

  DEDUCED INFORMATION:
     Vendor Name       : CONEXANT
     Modem Type        : Unknown communication device

(all right, on the web site list this is a compaq modem supported by hcf module)

hcfpciconfig says:

Should we attempt to automatically configure your hardware? [yes]

Selected PCI VendorID=14F1 DeviceID=1815
and INF file /etc/hcfpci/inf/hcfv90_lan_linux.inf

Supported countries: ...

Please enter your country name [FRANCE]: 

Configuring modem for country: "FRANCE"
You can change this setting later with the command "hcfpciconfig --country"

This package does not contain pre-built modules suitable for your system:
  Distribution: Mandrake-8.2
  Kernel arch: i686
  Kernel version: linux-2.4.18

Trying to automatically re-compile the modules..
(this requires a C compiler and proper kernel sources to be installed)

Where is the linux source build directory that matches your running kernel?
[/lib/modules/2.4.18/build]

Re-compiling HCF modules for kernel 2.4.18, using source directory
/lib/modules/2.4.18/build. Please wait..
Re-compilation and installation of HCF modules succeeded.

Your HCF modem should now be accessible as /dev/ttySHCF0
or through the symbolic link /dev/modem.

Everything seems ok, /etc/modules.conf contains:
alias /dev/ttySHCF[0-9]* hcfpciserial
alias char-major-240 hcfpciserial
alias /dev/cuaHCF[0-9]* hcfpciserial
alias char-major-241 hcfpciserial
alias /dev/modem hcfpciserial
options hcfpciserial serialmajor=240 calloutmajor=241 pcivendorid=0x14F1
pcideviceid=0x1815

and /etc contains:
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 jui  4 12:34 /dev/modem ->
/dev/ttySHCF0
crw-rw-rw-    1 root     root     240,  64 jui  4 12:34 /dev/ttySHCF0

But trying to fire up the connexion gives the following kernel messages:

Jul  4 12:15:16 voyageur pppd[4247]: Exit.

And I'm not connected on the network anymore (tulip modules not loaded).

I can't figure out the kernel messages but I hope this is not special to my
laptop :(
