Description of problem: Install works OK including external US Robotics 56k Sportster Faxmodem. After initial reboot, kudzu tells me "Removed Hardware" - "USR|2082 US Robotics 56K FAX EXT" Modem is there and powered on. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1.36 Hardware Discovery Utility How reproducible: every time (4 separate installs to date) Steps to Reproduce: 1.Perform basic install (Personal Desktop is enough). Problem is seen on first reboot. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: Modem is on Com1 on an MSI motherboard. Works OK with Win 2k. Works OK with Redhat Linux 9 (Hardware Discovery Utility v. 0.99.99)
I also get this problem: I installed Fedora Core 2 test3 on my machine, it picked up the modem during install then during the reboot Removes the modem configuration. I have a different brand external modem, it was also plugged in and switched on during the whole process. Modem is also on Com1, on an ASUS P4S533-MX motherboard. This worked fine with RedHat 9 and still works ok with Win2k Pro.
Does this persist on FC3 and later?
