1.1.21 this weekend --- oops, I have to hurry up...
Hi Marc,
the 3105 patch caused 2 problems regarding my UMC modem.
a) Main problem: Changlog entry 10.2.99:
vgetty/answer.c
Moved the switching to the voice line AFTER answering, else
would sometimes hang X.75 on a ZyXEL 2864I (anyway it's
better that way).
Hmm, you did change the code - and break UMC support.
With Creatix Phonemaster 144VF modems it is not allowed to touch the
voice line after ATA - this causes an on-hook /off-hook transition and
kicks out any caller befor he has any chance to react. (And I tried to
get a BIOS without this problem for at least 6 month (without success)).
Commenting out the lines 367 to 373 in the 3105's vgetty/answer.c
'fixes' this problem (sorry, I didn't find time for a better solution
yet).
b) Minor problem: libvoice/UMC.c, function UMC_set_device (l.124 to 159)
- Sending a ATH0 results in leaving voice mode.
- The UMC modem reports ERROR if an AT#VLS command is issued while not
beeing in voice mode.
Fix: To ensure we're in voice mode it would be good to insert in line
132:
voice_command("AT#CLS=8", "OK");
(Switching to voice mode while beeing in voice mode does not do any
harm.)
Regards, Steffen
