thinkpad again; ltmodem

[Cheryl Homiak]

Hi everybody!
Just to update, my ethernet is up and working on the thinkpad; still need to get
a switch or hub for the desktop though, because right now I have to unplug my
cable modem from the desktop to connect the laptop, and sometimes I need them
both connected.
I have a lucent technologies modem which does work with the ltmodem drivers for
linux, but I have a question or two and I think a couple of you may have dealt
with this.
First, even though I have only one serial port, when I compile the ltmodem
package, it seems to think my mocem is on ttyS01. I'm assuming though that it
actually has to come through the same serial port that I now use for the
doubletalk and/or braillelite, and I don't think the driver actually loads
unless i don't use the braillelite/doubletalk. Would I be correct in assuming
this. the reason I think this is correct is that i can't find anything about the
driver loading when I boot with my speech/braille technology, but when I boot
without it and make a dmesg file and then reboot and read the file, the driver
is loaded.
Second, if I should want to use the modem sometimes, I imagine this means I have
to put the bdoubletalk and/or braillelite on a pcmcia serial port. Has anybody
done this and does it work ok? Is there any special setting up I have to do
other than loading pcmcia drivers?
I sure like my new toy--oops, I mean tool!!!
thanks.
