One moment my laptop's PCMCIA modem was working fine, and the next
time I tried to use it, it wasn't fine. When trying to dial up to my
ISP, here are the critical parts from /var/log/syslog:
pppd[546]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
pppd[546]: sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0xe1ca08e4>
<pcomp> <accomp>]
pppd[546]: last message repeated 9 times
pppd[546]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
pppd[546]: Connection terminated.
pppd[546]: Receive serial link is not 8-bit clean:
pppd[546]: Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0
pppd[546]: Exit
O.k., so it seems to be telling me exactly what the problem is:
Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0
So what does one do about this problem?
How do I change bit 7 to something other than 0? Should I?
P.S. I know the ISP is o.k., as I've dialed into it from another
machine.
Thanks.
Kevin
