Subject: [work] mwave wont dial out was Re: [ltp] Help installing with mwave.


| sorry.... i dont have an answer... but im having similiar problems...
| i also have a thinkpad 600e and im running mandrake 9.0 ... mwave always 
| worked fine in 8.2, but i cant seem to get it running now...
| i'm getting this strange error about 2.4.19-16mdkcustom (thats my 
| kernel, 2.4.19-16mdk) and the modules create a directory to install into 
| at /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdkcustom - which is a bit weird...
| i've tried copying the module across to /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk but 
| with no success.
| 
| in my case the module will load fine, everything looks okay, mwaved 
| starts fine - but nothing happens when i try to dial out - i've got all 
| the hacks for devfs.conf in place, checked everything.... even added the 
| "append= 224000K" (cant remember the exact value i put, sorry) into my 
| lilo.conf.
| 
| what happens is that i'll start kppp, it says 'Modem ready' then 
| 'Initialising modem' and it sticks at that point. 

** might be a kppp problem - not mwave.  Know this happened in RH8 vs 7.2 which
worked straight out (though not with mwave)

i'm not getting any 
| errors in dmesg, strangely enough, or anything in my logs.... can attach 
| details if need be....
| 
| anyone seen this before?
| i had it happen once before but corrected it by disabling the IR with 
| tpctlir 0. i normally have to disable the IR in windows as well (i 
| dual-boot).
| 
| thanks in advance
