Hello,
i have tried to install ACPI
but i have some problems during the install procedure:
i have the knoppix version 2.4.19-xfs.
at first i downloaded the file
acpi-20020918-2.4.19.diff.gz
from the ACPI homepage.
then i copied the file into /usr/src
then i run:
gunzip acpi-20020726-2.4.18.diff.gz
cd linux
patch -p1 <../acpi-20020726-2.4.18.diff
After that i got the follwing message:
can't find file to patch at input line 206
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------

File to patch:

(I am a linux newbie, so please dont write a too short answer)
Thanks!

Subject: [hsflinux] Problems with Conextant-Ambit SoftK56 on Sony laptop
!
hello,
sory for my bad english.
i have a sony vaio PCG-GRX616MP laptop and i am trying to install my
modem on a
debian (knoppix) linux system (version 2.4.19-xfs).
my modem is the
Conextant-Ambit SoftK56 Data,Fax ICH Modem 8086:2486
but all i do ... the modem does not work. i read the articles in this
forum and found many
persons, who habe the same problem as i. but no tip worked.
i did the following steps:
at first i downloaded the
hsflinmodem-5.03.27lnxbeta03042700.tar driver from the homepage
www.linuxant.com
(HSF (softmodem) driver)
then i installed the driver with 'make install' and then with
'hsfconfig'.
after that i changed the county to GERMANY with 'hsfconfig --country'.
then i started 'modconf'.
i changed into 'misc' and loaded the module 'hsfengine'.
then i loaded the module 'hsfserial'.
after that the following lines are written in /var/log/syslog:
May 10 19:02:48 laptop insmod: Warning: loading

i could find the follwing lines in /etc/modules.conf
### update-modules: start processing /etc/modutils/hsf
alias /dev/ttySHSF0 hsfserial
alias char-major-240 hsfserial
alias /dev/ttyCUA* hsfserial
alias char-major-241 hsfserial
alias /dev/modem hsfserial
options hsfserial serialmajor=240 calloutmajor=241
### update-modules: end processing /etc/modutils/hsf
the link /dev/modem is there and the file ttySHSF0, too:
root at laptop:/dev# ls -l ttyS*
crw-rw-rw- 1 root dialout 4, 64 May 10 18:11 ttyS0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root dialout 4, 65 May 14 2002 ttyS1

crw-rw-rw- 1 root dialout 4, 67 Apr 15 2001 ttyS3
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 240, 64 May 10 17:56 ttySHSF0
now i configured the ppp conection 'provider' with pppconfig
In pppconfig i used the link /dev/modem
after running 'pon' the following lines are written in /var/log/syslog
May 10 19:14:00 laptop kernel: CSLIP: code copyright 1989 Regents of the
University of California
May 10 19:14:00 laptop kernel: PPP generic driver version 2.4.2

May 10 19:14:01 laptop pppd[2543]: Connect script failed
May 10 19:14:02 laptop pppd[2543]: Exit.
now i read in an article, that i should try the boot command
'pci=biosirq' on the lili promt.
but that did not work. still the same problems.
then i tried the boot command 'pci=acpi'. still the same problems.
here is my lili.conf (without the two boot commands):
boot=/dev/hda3
vga=791
prompt
timeout=50
append = "hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi
hdh=scsi apm=power-off noapic"

label=knoppix
root=/dev/hda3
read-only
#other=/dev/hda1
# label=freedos
# table=/dev/hda
here the data from the modem with the listmodem programm:
Build Number : 2600
=====================================================================
= RESULT OF MODEM QUERY =
=====================================================================
NUMBER OF MODEMS FOUND = 1
MODEM #1:

DEDUCED INFORMATION:

MODEM TYPE : HSF

what can i do to solve these problems? what can i do to bring the modem
installed correctly?

Perhaps try adding [newer] ACPI support to your kernel:
