Ryan) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: 2.0.5R, Zoom Modem detection problem Date: Thu, 6 Jul 1995 13:17:53 LOCAL Organization: Iowa State University Lines: 20 Message-ID: <marcus.149.00B58C6B@ccelab.iastate.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: dial20.ppp.iastate.edu X-Newsreader: Trumpet for Windows [Version 1.0 Rev B final beta #4] I was getting ready to install 2.0.5R via PPP. Much to my dismay when I booted off of the boot floppy, it failed to detect my Zoom V.FC 28.8 Internal modem on sio1 (standard address and IRQ). When I booted with a -c option and forced it to attach it, it detected it porperly as a 16550A chip. When I did the term in PPP, the characters it displayed were always one charater behind what I was typing (I'd type "A" and see nothing, I'd type "T" and the "A" would show up and so on). I managed to type in my initialization string which fixed that, but then wouldn't dial. What might be causing this problem? Any ideas?
