<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been trying to get my adsl pci modem to work
with redhat 8.0 now for some time with no success. I havent found any drivers
from the manufacturer but since the modem has Conexant chips on it and is
detected by 'lspci' as a Conexant device i tried the HSF and HCF drivers on the
website. The HSF drivers said the modem looks like a HCF modem, so i tried those
but with no sucess.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here's the main problem:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm having trouble installing and running
'hcfpciconfig' for some reason. Using the rpm to install, installs fine but
running the config utility hangs after showing the intro. It doesnt lock up the
computer, but it just sits there doing nothing - rarely does it actually ask any
questions about configuration, that only happens after a fresh linux
installation and only the first time install of the software. When i try to rpm
-e the package it doesnt respond either. The same applies to the tar.gz when i
compile it. However, during a 'make install' I get an error with KERNELSRC not
pointing to the right place even though im sure i have the source installed and
headers where they should be. I'm not sure what im doing wrong, is there an
extra package or library i need to get this working?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here's the information i found out so far about the
modem:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>(from lspci and /proc/pci)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Vendor ID: 14F1</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Device ID: 1611(PCI Arbitration device) and
1610(ATM network Controller) </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the original Manufacturer is supposedly: Taicom -
no drivers posted on their website(for a MC8000P)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the two chipsets have P4601-11 and Falcon 2P
11627-31 on them.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Im mainly looking forward to configuring it for
PPPoA because thats what my ISP supports.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any ideas would be greatly
appreciated.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
