I've still got Mandrake 7.0. I've removed the older Voodoo
graphic card from the PC and when I rebooted Linux, WOW, kudzu was
launched to tell me that the Voodoo card was removed and asked me if I
wanted to do such and such, etc. I'm really impressioned.
However, I'm thinking if the modem could be configured similarly,
it'd be very nice. Actually, the so-called "modem configuration "just
consists of asking what port the modem is connected to and make a
symbolic link to /dev/ttySx. If a novice user doesn't even know what
a port is or where it is, this configuration is useless. I'm pretty
sure this can be done more intelligently, ie, sending signals to a
port and waiting for responses from this one to determine if a modem
is connected to such and such port.
