Well im sure your probably going to be sick to death of these questions i am
asking but my modem is no better off.
It seams that i can dial out fine using minicom but not kppp. So why aren't
i using minicom? well i would love to but it seams that all other
applications are oblivious to the fact that i am connected to the internet.
so i can connect but thats it.

I have tweaked around with all the settings but none seam to get me any
further past the "initializing modem..." message. another thing i did try
was to change some of the modem command settings (as pointed out in the kppp
manual FAQ) to the same as minicoms settings (no idea what i was doing) but
this also seams to get me no further.
So i am still in the situation that (1)redhats dialer won't even detect my
modem (2)kppp will queried the modem but get as far a "initializing
modem..." and go no further (3)and minicom will dial and connect but no
other programs will be able to use the connection. (this is probably coz i
dont know how to use minicom)
well once again any suggestions would be good.
