Hi,
Im seriously thinking of putting up a Unix partition (either Linux or
386BSD) on my 386sx. The only problem is that I have an Intel Satisfaxtion
400 modem which requires a device driver in order to work. Without the
following line in my config.sys:
DEVICE=C:\FAX\SATISFAX.SYS IOADDR=0350
my modem is as dead as a doorknob. I talked to a tech over at Intel and he
said that a device driver could be written for the modem to allow it to work
under Unix, but that Intel had no plans to do so. So I was wonderring if
anyone has written a device driver (or knows of someone who has) for the
Intel 400, or is their any other way to get it to work under Unix. Any
info would be appreciated. :)
