[tlinux-users:02323] modem toshiba satellite 1900
06/02/2002
Hi,

this is my first experience with linux. I bought suse linux 8.0 personal and installed it on my toshiba notebook satellite 1900 (windows xp was preinstalled).The problem is that the modem (Toshiba software modem AMR, COM3) has not been recognized. Then I tried a manual configuration with yast2, but did not raelly know how to do it and of course it failed. Does anyone have experience with that and could give me some advice how to solve the problem? I would appreciate any help!

Thanks.

At one point, when I was running mandrake 7.2 on my Toshiba Satellite, I
had a need for my dialup modem (before I got DSL). At that point, I was
actually able to get it going by using the LTModem drivers. I found what
looks to be a promising resource for you here:

Hopefully, this will get you going. If you scroll down, you will find
Linux-SuSE binary drivers.

Good luck!

There is absolutely no support for the Lucent AMR Win modems in Linux.
Nobody is even working on it. Get a PCMCIA based real modem .

Well...I'm not sure if my Toshiba Satellite 2800-s201 has an AMR
winmodem...but I know it DOES have an Lucent modem and I DID get it
working.

Lucky you.

For those of us stuck with an AMR modem, there is no driver.
