Hello List,
My modem driver-needed to be built from
source-created device nodes like
/dev/slamr0 ,/dev/slusb0.When I rebooted I found
these nodes cleared and
8> the daemon slmodemd dead.
Use as superuser
$ su -
psswd ******
run
# ungrab-winmodem
# modprobe slamr
# cp /dev/slamr0 /etc/udev/devices and/or
# cp /dev/slusb0 /etc/udev/devices
I also need to install modules ungrab-winmodem and
slamr in that order and
I have put them in /etc/modprobe.conf in that
order.If the order is
reversed,slamr is grabbed by the kernel.But on
rebooting,I found in the
messages slamr grabbed by the kernel.Obviuosly,
module slamr got loaded
first.
It appears there is some process earlier which loads
slamr module prior to
the processing of /etc/modprobe.conf.
You do not need to include it in /etc/modprobe.conf.
It is not needed with kernels > 2.6.
The sequence I want is,
1.Load ungrab module
2.load slamr module
3.run init process /etc/init.d/slmodemd
This used to occur in this sequence in FC1 through
FC2. I am having
persistent problem in FC4.
My knowledge of Boot process is not well enough to
figure out what's going
wrong.
Things changed a bit with ungrab-winmodem kernels >
2.6.10, and udev since FC3. Autoloading of drivers
changed somewhat. Try to use the script that follows.
In case you have trouble, please send another email.
Thanks,
Parameshwara Bhat
