Re: PCMCIA modem appearing on ttyS4 (and not working)



I have an INTEL EEPRO 100 combocard and the Sony provided useless winmodem is on ttyS4. For some reason the modem side of the Intel card believes it is on ttyS24. I run woody on a SONY Vaio and use debian's pcmcia-cs, Yenta doesn't work even though everything shows up in the logs. Take a look at ttyS24.

Good luck
