[hsflinux] Roadmap for 6.0 series

[pmwisse at wanadoo.nl]

Dear hsfmodem experts, 
 
I own one of those nice Acer Aspire 1310 notebooks with a Conexxant softmodem in it. 
Unfortunately, the 5.03.27 series of hsflinmodem drivers cannot be made to work with this 
modem. See messages ealier on on the list. I've tried everything. I've replaced the cty code from 
the Windows driver, replaced all relevant code from the .inf file, moved back to 5.03.03 and tried 
the same on that driver, but alas, nothing works. The drivers compile correctly, but no dialtone is 
the only thing which comes out (or no answer with ATX3). With the 5.03.27 driver, all CPU is also 
eaten by the driver, so much that it locks up the machine. This doesn't happen with the .03 driver, 
but that one doesn't work either. 
 
So, I'm desperate now as far as the 5.03 series of drivers is concerned. The Windows driver of 
the modem is based upon the 6.0 driver. Is there a release estimate as to when a Linux version 
of this driver might appear? If this is still a long time away, I'll buy myself an usb modem, because 
my good old serial modem doesn't work---no serial connector on the laptop :-( 
Thanks in advance, 
 
Maarten Wisse 
  
PS. If anyone is interested, I can mail the Windows driver files.
