Description Elias Probst 2008-02-02 12:37:22 UTC
The current initscript for net-dialup/hsfmodem-7.68.00.04-r1 has two issues:
- It uses stop and start in the restart function instead of svc_stop and svc_start
- It displays [OK] although the start sequence wasn't successful due to missing modules (See also bug#208569)

The attached patch fixes both issues.

Regards, Elias P.

Eh, and how/where exactly do you want the patch applied? Cf. Bug 205071; looks pretty much like CANTFIX.

Ok, this changes a lot. Missed this bug. Please don't close this bug yet, will take a look at the issue again.

Well, good luck. ;)
Comment 5 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-03-20 17:07:20 UTC
As noted above, this approach is a no-go. I'd say you should ask upstream to split the initscripts out of the nasty hsfconfig script. Anyway, reopen if you figure out something.
