Hi all... I'm a newbie in linux and hardware, so please be patient if my questions are silly! :) I have an Hamlet FM560 56K - V.90 PCMCIA FAX MODEM. It works fine on my windoz98 partition, but I can't make it work with linux! :( I'm pretty sure that it isn't a winmodem (at least, I can't read 'winmodem' in any part of the documentation! :) ) I'd like to get rid of this 1GB vfat partition, but I can't until I can connect to the internet without windows! I spent a few hours reading documentation under /usr/doc, but now I think that at this point I need some help... I have also a PCMCIA Ethernet Card from Hamlet and it works fine with both windows and linux in the other pcmcia slot. I still can't understand if my card is supported or not. I wouldn't be able (at the moment) to write a new driver, so I'm probably going to buy a supported modem (even an external one)... it would probably have been more convenient to do that from the beginning, but I wanted to try... in fact I learnt some interesting things, but now I'm done! :P ... I guess every answer is in the "Error parsing CIS on socket 1: Invalid argument I tried to report as many information about my system (maybe too many?) as I could. Any help or explanation would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!
