Please give us some more details: 1) Which distribution and version of Linux
are you running (RedHat 6.0, RedHat 5.2, RedHat 5.1, Mandrake 5.3, Mandrake
6.0, etc) 2) What brand and model of modem are you using, is it internal or
external? If it's a WinModem or requires special "helper" apps, forget it
working in Linux.
