zygo, thanks.

That init string does indeed work - I'm connected using it right now.
I recognize that init string from the log file when I ran the modem in windows.
It's interesting to see that there is no mention of 'AT+CGDCONT=1' in that log.
Note that this dial string is enough. At least it works for me (plus your init string).
Here's the pupdial.log (for Barry)

Any idea what the extra stuff is supposed to achieve over plain *99#

Shep,
My guess: The modem can store groups of settings. ATDT*99***1# uses the first group and *99# uses the default group. If there's only one group then it is the default.
pakt,
I might have got my string from ms xp -- I don't remember. I wonder, was the old string wired into wvdial.conf or was it the result of interrogating the modem?
Mine connects at the same speed in Puppy and ms -- 3,600,000b/s. Does yours? But the marketing says 7,200,000. Funny that it is exactly half.
Also, the carrier is detected straight away for me.

Master volum not working |
|
Master volume does not affect sound nor muting works, I can set PCM volume in Retrovol.
Sound card is an integrated one...
Master volume worked flawlessly in Wary 030 (I know, not much of help...)
Also conversation quality in Skype is the worst ever, I may guess it's Mic control unaffecting too...
Any tip?

I can't get my win key to work... (never had success with Wary, no problems in Puppeee)
I add lines in xorg.conf
| Code: | Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
Option "XkbLayout" "it" #xkeymap0
Option "XkbOptions" "altwin:super_win"
EndSection |
and in jwmrc-personal
| Code: | | <Key mask="P" key="D">desktop#</Key> |
but the "Win-d" acts like a plain "d".
I read and tried all examples on forum, I also got Fn key combinations to work but no Win key ...
-------------------
Also about keys:
In alsamixer opened in urxvt pressing F3, F4 ecc. keys causes program to terminate and get a printed tilde ~
Thanks

Thanks but, well I can get the keycode with xev (115 for me), but I want Win key to act as a mask for the win-d combination I'm used plus others
the win key has the advantage it's on the left and I can use it without leaving the mouse with the right one and not being used by softwares to build shortcuts

pburn hangs when trying to blank a cd/rw:
| Code: |
# cdrecord -scanbus
wodim: No such file or directory.
Cannot open SCSI driver!
For possible targets try 'wodim --devices' or 'wodim -scanbus'.
For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'.
For IDE/ATAPI devices configuration, see the file README.ATAPI.setup from
the wodim documentation.
|
(I guess it will not let me burn anything)
worked flawlessly in Wary 030

worked fine.

Would you kindly report this to the Pburn thread, or send a pm to zigbert.
I also noticed a problem with Pburn -- I set the temporary storage path, but it was not remembered and later reverted to default.

problems! so far. |
|
Update1
Box1 - Acer v3700gx - E'net sat link
problem1: Video probe picked i810 instead of intel (i915), dropped out of x, ran xorgwizard, selected intel all ok manually.
problem2: took two runs to get ethernet to setup eth0 (dlink dge-530T Gigabite), then had to run firewall to access outside, no default access????
problem3: desktop Drive Icons Manager, ticked box to say erase then redraw and realigh existing icons, didn't work with just a jwm restart or xserver restart, needed a reboot to happen.
warning 1: I downloaded and confirm that firefox pet doesn't work from nluug, also alsa-lib >seems to be a dependancy of a few packages (maybe should be indefault build). Could only find a tar, not a pet
---------------------------------------------------
Origonal message:
box2 - Home built but gigabyte where possible - dialup winmodem
problem 1: didn't descover my video card (Radeon HD4350), usually probe works ok, 102 wouldn't either probe or select "radeon" had to use vesa to load video.
modem ok and dials out ok (3 woofs for that).
Warning 1: Downloader for ppm kept dropping out and restarting with nluug.
Problems 2/3: downloads
Pet: Firefox-3.6.9-w5.pet, no icons on install, further look, no firefox.desktop, /opt/firefox seems to be a mess after install, can't even run from itself. Maybe corrupt.
Pet: Bluefish-2.0.2-w5.pet, missing alsa-lib.:: doesn't seem to be affecting it run though.
@barry - should we include the w5 pet problems here or ....
regards

I'll do it but it seems to me a cdrecord issue being not able to find my device.
Cheers

Seem like my Huawei E1550 3G USB dongle only connects very sporadically.
Most of the time the log shows that it's 'Waiting for carrier' and gets the response "NO CARRIER".
This then continues over and over until I exit the wizard.
It's almost as if the dialer doesn't wait long enough to detect the carrier.
I tested with the default settings as well as with zygo's init string and with both '*99***1# and *99#, but none made any difference.

Just see if you can search around for the authentication your isp uses. Virgin here uses CHAP, but nearly all use PAP. I had a similar situation to yours awhile ago that is why I am mentioning this. I appended -chap to /etc/ppp/options to fix it, but now there is a special case with the file /etc/wvdial_options/APN-VirginBroadband.
Just an idea that I hope may help.
Cheers
