please can somebody help me out.
I just bought a starcomms LG CDMA LSP-3000 phone,
setting up my internet connection on XP wasn't a problem, but
when i tried it on my linux 9, the modem wasn't detected.
so i got this script below from the net and tried to alter it to suite
my need.
# !/bin/bash
echo "user xxxxx password xxxxx" > $HOME/.ppprc
pppd /dev/ttyS0 33600 debug usepeerdns defaultroute noauth connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v "" at+crm=1 OK "atdt#777" CONNECT' mtu 264
saved it as /home/.ppprc.
then ran it.
Next i set up another script saved as
/etc/wvdial.conf
[Modem0]
Modem=/dev/ttyS0
Baud=33600
SetVolume=0
Dial Command = ATDT
init1=ATZ
init2=AT+CRM=1
FlowControl= Software (CRTSCTS)
[Dialer starcomms]
Username=xxxxx
Password=xxxxx
Phone=#777
Stupid Mode= 1
Inherits = Modem0
entered some entries in /etc/resolv.conf
search starcomms.com
nameserver 196.3.60.2
nameserver 196.3.60.3
ran [root@localhost root]# wvdial startcomms
and got these errors
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.53
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: ATZ
--> Sending: ATQ0
--> Re-Sending: ATZ
--> Modem not responding.
Lest i forget, i linked the /dev/ttyS0 to /dev/modem
when i run .ppprc and wvdial.conf scripts within close interval, i get
[root@localhost root]# wvdial startcomms
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.53
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyS0: Device or resource busy
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyS0: Device or resource busy
--> Cannot open /dev/ttyS0: Device or resource busy
Please, i would really appreciate any assistant cause i hate using
anything Microsoft, am a Java developer and a linux frick.
:?
