<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi everybody,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm newbie on linux system so I've chosen a
"simple" distr such as Mandrake 9.0 in order to start. The problem is I can't
use my modem... ListModem application identifies it under windows as PCI ID
10b9:5457 which is told to be compatible with HSF drivers in the conexant linux
drivers page. This modem is usually found on xe4500 of HP, and mine laptop
is xe4400, so there are great chance that is the same one ! The problem is that
if I use listmodem.sh under Linux , it is not recognized as a PCI modem but
as:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>....?</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial></FONT></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>I download the HSF drivers (under windows I
have drivers for HSF system) with the good version of kernel for Mandrake 9.0,
install the package rpm and then run hsfconfig. It said everything ok ,and now
my modem should be accessible under /dev/ttySHSF0 something like that...Problem,
it doesn't exist....</FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>Help me! I've tried a lot of things search
over the web and found a lot of people with the same problem than me, but nobody
answered to them...! </FONT></FONT></DIV>
