Hi everyone, A new experimental version of the Conexant HSF (softmodem) driver for Linux is now available from http://www.mbsi.ca/cnxtlindrv This is mostly a bugfix release, which is recommended for users affected by the absence of /dev/ttySHSF0 under Mandrake, make errors, or RING detection not working. Please let me know if any of these problems persist. The detailed list of changes is available below.
