And 2 months ago I bought a Dynamode winmodem only to find out it's not
working nor with my Linux and not even with Windows (I specially installed
Windows just to test it) - I replaced the modem with 3 other modems from the
same model - with the same error (well, their support guy didn't know what to
say - probably few bad ones), so basically I still hate Dynamode from the old
days ;)
Anyway - those of you who have the Connexant HSF winmodems (not HCF) could
start smile very soon - Connexant has contact the original linux 2.2 kernel
winmodem driver for this chipset and they worked together to produce new set
of drivers (for kernel 2.4.x) and the installation is quite simple - it's a
simple RPM (tarballs are also will be available). It's still beta, but I'll
ask the drivers author if I can publish the URL for the drivers (if u want
the URL - contact me privately).
Thanks,
