That rpm is a good rpm and works well. I have tested it on multiple
machines with various types of Lucent modems. The rpm adds some lines
to /etc/modules.conf that will automatically make the /dev/modem link
that points to /dev/LT/0 (if I remmeber correctly) when you try to
access it.
So start up kppp, go into configuration, press the AutoDetect button.
It will try to read from /dev/modem, which will force devfs to do a
'modprobe /dev/modem' which will automatically load the lt_modem module
(and the lt_serial module), which will then register with devfs which
will then create /dev/modem. Now kppp will be able to talk to your
modem.
