Driver loaded !

Great,,

Thanx for helping me stating the obvious..... I feel so stupid sometimes...

'k

Now i get : dmesg -

Nozomi driver nozomi_tty<6>[792] nozomi_read_config_table(): Version of card: 3

what do i do now?
 
No dev devices...

I also get nothing with nom* in /dev


I'm braindead already !:eek:

Hereis my card mgr responses...


proz-gate:/usr/src/nom# cardctl info

Normally this means the card has crashed :(

Let do the following:

MAKE BACKUPS OF THESE FILES !!! :D

Edit /etc/sysklog.conf and add the following line:

*.* /var/log/all.log

restart syslog.

in an open console run tail -f /var/log/all.log and then insert the card - without having the driver loaded. Then insmod the driver and paste the result here :)

My blue and pink lights just keep flashing... (on the card)

tail -f /var/log/all.log - Fails!

I've done all as you requested, I even restarted the machine... but the tail command fails explaining the the file /var/log/all.log does not exist.

Should i be trying to get it to work in USB or serial mode.... I'm feeling confused here (I have a PCMCIA card in a PCMCIA converter/PCI bus card installed in a PC) .?
 
Pink light

ok,
I've mamanged to get the "pink light" to stop blinking by disabling the PIN code... now the blue light still keeps flasing, but now is double flashes....

And still no device in /dev

:eek:
 
Was /etc/sysklogd.conf empty ? if so - just look for a file called sys....something - and btw - restart sysklogd after that :)

Ok, currently connected with my NOVATEL HSDPA Card via Linux (CentOs 4.3)

Update: :( only running 384k - working on it.

Same here ...

Tazz_Tux - the modprobe command did not do it either, got some error (will send details later). Can you try to get hold of a U740 card and try it out?

thanks!

Help me please

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a Option HSDPA Card on Centos 4 (2.6.9-22.EL) and am having endless problems!

1. I have got the PCMCIA card to work (I think)

/etc/init.d/pcmcia status
cardmgr (pid 1894) is running...

cardctl status
Socket 0:
3.3V CardBus card
function 0: [ready]

2. I do not get any entries in the system log when I eject or insert the card.

3. I tried to make the nozomi drivers that are posted in this thread and have downloaded it from http://www.pharscape.org but get strange results when I run make.

Warning: Compiling for 2.6:

I have installed the kernel source as well :

rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-22.EL
kernel-hugemem-devel-2.6.9-22.EL
kernel-doc-2.6.9-22.EL
kernel-2.6.9-22.EL
kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.69
kernel-devel-2.6.9-22.EL

I would appricate any help.

Thanks,

Neil.
 
Don't you have a kernel-source package ?

Hi,

Thank you for the response.

I only have the kernel and kernel-devel packages. I have found kernel-sourcecode-2.6.9-22.EL.i686.rpm on the net and will download it tonight. Hopefully this will help!

Neil.
 
To get the kernel sources: (This is for CentOs 4.3)

wget http://mirrors.centos.org/centos/4.3/os/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.9-34.EL.src.rpm
rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.9-34.EL.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
cp linux-2.6.9.tar.bz2 /usr/src
cd /usr/src
tar xfj linux-2.6.9.tar.bz2

There are some kernel config files inside /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
just copy the appropriate config file into the /usr/src/linux-2.6.9 folder and rename it to .config
