Dear FreeBSD friends,
I need support with a MultiTech modem, MT9234ZPX-PCIE-NV
(http://www.multitech.com/en_US/PRODUCTS/Families/MultiModemZPX/)
The modem is recognised during the boot event:
<snip>
pci6: <simple comms, UART> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)
</snip>
and also appears in the list of found hardware over the PCI bus:
<snip>
none1@pci0:6:0:0: class=0x070002 card=0x20262205 chip=0x015213a8 rev=0x02
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Exar Corp.'
device = 'XR17C/D152 Dual PCI UART'
class = simple comms
subclass = UART
</snip>
However, as the boot process already mentions, there is no driver attached
and I cannot get the modem to appear as an accessible and functional
device. Is there someone, who can help me to get this modem to work?

Met vriendelijke groeten,
With kind regards,
Mit freundlichen Gruessen,
De jrus wah,
Willy

Is there someone, who can help me to get this modem to work?It would be helpful if you could specify what FreeBSD version you're using. Assuming 8.2 or RELENG_8: no promises, but puc(4) is probably what you're looking for. I would try adding: puc_load="yes" To your /boot/loader.conf, then see what happens after booting. uart(4) may auto-attach to that. Again, no promises. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
