"Agere" modem in laptop uses different driversForum: Networking Topic: "Agere" modem in laptop uses different drivers started by: MethodOne Posted by MethodOne on Dec. 22 2005,00:58
With the "Agere Systems AC'97 Modem" in my < Compal DL70 > (aka Chembook 2070) laptop, I booted up DSL and got no message saying that Lucent Winmodem was detected. I started to realize that it used different drivers when I put in the < KANOTIX > live CD. The knet program in KANOTIX detected the modem as a Smart Link modem. It silently dialed and was connected. This is just to remind you that some "Agere" AC97 modems actually work with Smart Link drivers when the ltmodem one doesn't.
