driver USB HSF Modem Conexant

Post by easylm »

Hi,
I would need to enable an USB modem in LM 19 or 20.
I tried the following commands:

Code: Select all

user@lm:~$ dmesg -c
user@lm:~$ dmesg
[33199.564299] usb 2-1: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ohci-pci
[33199.797271] usb 2-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0572, idProduct=1300, bcdDevice= 1.00
[33199.797274] usb 2-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[33199.797275] usb 2-1: Product: USB HSF Modem
[33199.797277] usb 2-1: Manufacturer: Conexant Systems, Inc.
and

Code: Select all

user@lm:~$ sudo mmcli -L
No modems were found

user@lm:~$ sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices
....
T:  Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#=  8 Spd=12   MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=00 Prot=ff MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=0572 ProdID=1300 Rev= 1.00

I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=0a(data ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=(none)
E:  Ad=01(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms

E:  Ad=82(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=  64 Ivl=1ms
I tried both the CD drivers and the drivers at http://www.linuxant.com and
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/oem/downloads.php
but the latest are for kernel 2.6 or older and they state:
"NOTE: As dial-up modems are now mostly obsolete, these drivers are no longer being actively developed."

Is there a chance to get this modem work on LM 0.19 or 0.20?

Highly unlikely, I would think.

The driver packages are so old that the source code refers to defunct file paths. A deep dig, even nine years ago.

You might be able to get the precompiled USB HSF modem drivers for Windows to work using the ndiswrapper module.
