the First problem i have it
How can i Prepare the modem in opensuse??
I have Laptop hp dv2000

If the information is incomplete
tell me what its ??
‘modem’ is kind of vague
Have you actually installed openSUSE?
If so, please explain more clearly what you mean by ‘Modem’
Ie; dialup, broadband, (wireless)
Hello and welcome to opensuse.
English does not seem to be your native language. What do you speak normally (maybe some of us can coach you in your language).
In all cases we need to know:
Did you already install OpenSuse on your laptop?
Which version of OpenSuse did you install?
Which desktop did you chose during install? (If you did not change the default, it should be KDE).
If I do understand, you wish to use the build in modem Conexant with OpenSuse. Did you read the pdf guides of OpenSuse prior to install? If you did, did you notice a program that is called Yast?
For what I understand your modem is the following softmodem:
Conexant HDAUDIO Soft Data Fax Modem
The drivers from Linuxant should work: LINK
Will give you more details
I’ve installed Opensuse 11 with Gnom desktop
You know im not very good in English So i use google translate hahah
ok my modem is dial-up

Conexant HDAUDIO Soft Data Fax Modem
my quetion is How can i Prepare my dial-up modem in opensuse11
give me the step coz im new in opensuse 11
thanks everyone
Hi moom2it. I have found that openSUSE 11.0 does not work well with the Linuxant modem drivers, due to the kernel version and the need to modify alsa (sound system).
The Linuxant website mentions
(*) Note for SUSE 11.0 users: Installing the alsa-driver-linuxant package is required before installing the HSF driver package. Users with non-HDA modems might prefer installing a generic package which doesn’t depend on alsa-driver-linuxant.
I have never been able to get this working myself, (although I had my modem working with suse 10.2 and earlier).
I would recommend upgrading to openSUSE 11.2 instead. There are packages listed for the 11.2 kernels without the need to install custom alsa packages.
INSTALLING: Follow the link provided by stakanov, click on the appropriate package for your kernel version. This command will tell you what kernel version you are using
uname -r
Take care to install the correct one for your system. Use the package manager to install. It should take care of any dependencies.
To use your modem, you will need to install kppp or kinternet via YaST.
The YaST modem configuration utility should be able to find your modem automatically (once the hsfmodem RPM has been downloaded and installed).
