the same thing is installed in windows xp on another lappy and coz i live in a remote area i need to pick cdma from the dropdown list manually ; the default being evdo... i dont know how to get the same option in linux...
im a recent convert and dont know much...sorry if im being longwinded.. please suggest a point and click method or a total idiots guide... thank you!
here are the 2 files included by the manufacturer
README
how to compile
1 Download and install kernel source code (if it is not in the released version);(e.g.: Install it at /opt/linux-2.6.18)
if it is the first time to install, you need:
make menuconfig //kernel configurations (generally use default configurations, exit and save)
make modules_prepare //prepare for making modules
2 Modify KERNELDIR=/opt/linux-2.6.18 in Makefile;
3 After make //, produce relevant kernel's drive file---ztemt.ko
For ARM CPU, compile instruction will be
make CC=arm-linux-gcc LD=arm-linux-ld TARGET=xscale-be-elf ARCH=arm V=1
4 ./load to load ztemt.ko to linux kernel;
HOW TO
1, Load driver-zte evdo
1),Copy ztemt.ko from release's relevant directory to certain directory (take /home/lm/ztemt for example);
e.g., you need install Fedora core 6:
cp release/Fedora/FC6/ztemt.ko /home/lm/ztemt/
2),cp us-test/wvdial-conf /etc/
3),Load driver
insmod /home/lm/ztemt/ztemt.ko
4),Insert network card;
5),Run wvdial and to dial successfully (need root authorization). Normally, the following prompts will appear:
--> pid of pppd: 2450
--> Using interface ppp0
--> Authentication (CHAP) started
--> Authentication (CHAP) successful
--> local IP address 220.205.100.27
--> remote IP address 220.192.56.19
--> primary DNS address 220.192.32.103
--> secondary DNS address 220.192.0.130
--> Script /etc/ppp/ip-up run successful
--> Default route Ok.
--> Nameserver (DNS) Ok.
--> Connected... Press Ctrl-C to disconnect
6,FAQ
1),require software support:
udev
wvdial
2),It might not be able to resolve domain name after running wvdial to dial successfully.
In this case, you need manually add primary DNS address and secondary DNS address to /etc/resolv.conf.
aint making much sense to me ...
... all i can think of is its trying to connect in the evdo setting but i dont kow how to make it take up the cdma signal. or maybe im just being stupid ... how do i get an opinion from viking 777 on this ? yea im new to the internet in general
