Networking :: PCI ltmodem help



Hi DuncanM,
Why done you give this place a look.  "The LT modem can be used in many Linux systems"

Linux Support

If not you are going to pull the modem out and look at the chips that are on the modem and do a search on Google for the chip set.
That is how I got the drivers for my no name modem.

Is there a debian package for this LT-modem?  I'm trying to get this working on my computer, which is much faster.  I am currently using Mandrake 9.2 with this modem as I type.  It works well when supported.
I did it!:D I managed to make a deb for the ltmodem.  You'll have to find a way to dpkg-restore to use it, but if you get an ltmodem driver working in any other distro on the same computer, you can log on to the net and chroot to the DSL partition. Then since the internet connection will still be there, you can then give the command
Code Sample
dpkg-restore
and dpkg will then be able to be retreived from the server.  That's how I did it.

If you need to know how to chroot to the DSL partition, there is a tutorial here.:blues:

I sent the deb to the maintainer of the ltmodem driver page.  Whether it is posted or not remains to be seen, but I can email it to someone otherwise.

Well done.:)

Hi trigggl! I have to admit that your idea sounds very interesting, I would like to know more about it and understand it! coz this would be a better way to get acces to the net for people who have Windows modems on another partition. Can U explain it more plz? I thought that dpkg restore didn't work, coz I tried and I didn't succed at all! THx

Some who doesn't know nuffin in Linux!
