It would probably be a bit more helpful if you stated what kinda modem you had - and whether or not you've searched for LINUX drivers for the modem...if not, you might want to check out http://linmodems.org - see if you can locate a modem driver...don't worry about COM ports until your modem is recognized - else you're spinning your wheels... -- Sat Dec 7 08:25:00 EST 2002 8:25am up 1 day, 38 min, 4 users, load average: 0.10, 0.12, 0.22 .o0 linux user:267497 0o. -------------------------------- | __ __ | k�hn media australia | / \ /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | .\__/ || | | | | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen k�hn | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | ;"""/ / | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU -------------------------------- Coralament*Best Gr�tens*Liebe Gr��e*Best Regards*Elkorajn Salutojn Build a system that even a fool can use and only a fool will want to use it.
