I just got a different laptop IBM thinkpad 770E 266
mhz 64 mb ram. Yeah I know it could use
some more ram and I will probably order some latter
today. I installed dual boot Win 98 SE and ML 9.0 and
installed a external modem US Robotics Sportster
hooked
to the serial port.
the modem works fine with Winblows but KPPP cant
seem to do a thing with it in ML 9.0 In KPPP setup
device I first tried Dev tty S0 and got a message
saying KPPP can not find
/dev /tty/ S0 This came as kind of a shock, I never
had
one of these USR sportster modems fail me yet. Just
for
grins I tried all the other settings In KPPP , DEV /
Modem, Dev TTY S0 through S3 and S 10 through S13 and
still no luck. Tried to querry modem , No Luck, tried
a
different Modem and still no luck. I then went back to
Winblows and the modem still works fine.
I kind of suspect that ML can not see the serial
port but I don't have a clue as to how to
check that, no other serial devices around the house
to
plug in the serial port.
Any body got any Ideas about what is wrong here.
Maybe the seat to keyboard interface?
Thanks
Marc
