These types of -modems are commonly known as 'winmodems' as their software is -designed for use on Microsoft Windows. Linuxant at one time -provided the software for free but recently they have been -charging money for the drivers. They still provide a 'free' set -of drivers that limit the modem speed to 14.4Kbps. - -The last "free" (as in beer) drivers come with a license that prohibits -distribution of versions marked "beta" or "lnxtbeta". Therefore it may be -difficult to find the source files. You may want to keep the source package -around in case the files become unavailable. - -These drivers will most likely not work with a 2.6.x kernel. - -Run "hsfconfig" after installing this package to setup the modem. -This will build some kernel modules and change a few other files. - -Unfortunately, this script does not do a great job of cleaning up after itself. -To completely remove the drivers, you must do the following: - 1. Run "hsfconfig --remove" to have the script remove the kernel modules. - 2. Remove the package. - 3. Remove the /etc/hsf directory. - 4. Replace /dev/modem with /dev/modem.old - |
