This ebuild is for the slmodem package but for an rather old version (2.7.10), which is know to work with IBM Thinkpad T30 which are supplied with Intel's internal modem based on the same chip as Smart Link modem . Newer versions of the driver as 2.7.14 and up do not work with T30 as they dial every number twice. The 2.7.10 version works perfectly with T30 - except some warning messages in when the module gets loaded by the kernel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Pete, can you comment on this?
I'm not able to test 2.4 stuff on my T30 as i've got 2.6 headers and only 2.6 kernels around, sadly.... sorry. (I could test compilation, etc, but functionality i can't. not much better than you can do donnie.. ):
Pete, didn't you say you had newer versions working on it at some point though?
i had it *almost* working with the alsa-ified version plus the modem daemon from the unsupported 2.9 series tarball. never got it fully working though, just wouldn't jive (and i'm no longer anywhere near dialup, so haven't looked at it)
Since Peter can't use and test, i'll give some additional info: emerge info: ------------ Portage 2.0.50-r6 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.2, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.4.25-gentoo- r2) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.25-gentoo-r2 i686 Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 - M CPU 2.00GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.9 distcc 2.13 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58-r1 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2 /share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/bind /var/qmail/con trol" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache fixpackages sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://dev2.rd.forthnet.gr/tsp-cache/ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/gento o http://dev2.rd.forthnet.gr/tsp-cache/gentoo.seren.com/gentoo http://dev2.rd.fo rthnet.gr/tsp-cache/ftp.iasi.roedu.net/mirrors/gentoo.org/ ftp://dev2.rd.forthne t.gr/tsp-cache/ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/Gentoo ftp://dev2.rd.forthnet.gr/tsp-cac he/ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/ ftp://dev2.rd.forthnet.gr/tsp-cache/ftp .iasi.roedu.net/pub/mirrors/gentoo.org/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://dev2.rd.forthnet.gr/gentoo-portage" USE="X Xaw3d aac aalib acpi acpi4linux activefilter alsa amd antlr apm arts arts wrappersuid autofs avi bcel berkdb bidi bluetooth cddb cdr chroot crypt cups dga directfb dnd dv dvb dvd encode esd faad fam fbcon fbdev fdftk ffmpeg flac flash foomaticdb foreign-package foreign-sysvinit freetype gd gdbm geoip gif gimpprint gmp gphoto2 gpm gtk gtk2 gtkhtml hotplug icq imagemagick imlib innodb irda irmc jabber java javascript jbig jpeg kde lcms libg++ libgda libwww linguas_el,en_GB,en mad maildir matroska mbox mikmod mmap mmx motif mpeg mpeg4 mpi msn mysql ncurses nls oav odbc offensive oggvorbis opengl oss pam parse-clocks pcap pcmcia pda pdflib perl pic png pnp ppds python qt qtmt quicktime radeon readline samba sdl slang slp speedo speex spell sse ssl stencil-buffer svga tcltk tcpd theora tiff transcode truetype type1 unicode usb video_cards_radeon wifi wmf x86 xml xml2 xmms xosd xv xvid zlib" I'm using slmodem 2.7.10 for 9 months on my T30 (on debian). Since mid April I'm using it on Gentoo as well (I'v switched my T30 to gentoo recently). I'm adding this very comment while connected via slmodem 2.7.10 driver.
Thought I'd add a reference to bug 47947 (version 2.9.6) and bug 50722 (version 2.9.1). Rightly or wrongly I'm going to mark this a dup of the latest verion. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 47947 ***
