This is the home page for dmidecode, a tool for dumping a computer's DMI (some say SMBIOS) table contents in a human-readable format (see a sample output). This table contains a description of the system's hardware components, as well as other useful pieces of information such as serial numbers and BIOS revision.

Roger said 'The problem is not in the modem driver itself, but in the Linux serial driver taking over the modem hardware (such as it is). There should be a kernel patch soon; and, the next version of the drivers from Linexant will feature a workaround.'

Sound works with trident.o from kernel or the ali5451-driver from alsa. The alsa driver should be better. Maybe midi works with alsa
Alsa driver on kernel 2.6 : 'snd-ali5451.o'

But you can hear the Interruptions through the headphone. It seem that the mixer is shuffled : master is assigned as 'pcm1' and 'pcm1' mapped to 'pcm2'.
MIDI is supported on windows, but I don't know how to on linux.

Is it possible to "logicaly revert" the connector ? I know that some hubs can do this.
This nic does not share irq fairly when using w/ DRI (see graphics).
