Check that the link (/dev/modem) actually exists; it could have been blown out - also check that there exists the module that loads you modem and aliases it in your /etc/modules.conf - you can test it with minicom from a terminal - after minicom opens up, check it's setup/configuration - and you should SHOULD be able to type in basic commands such as AT &V (to view the configuration of the modem) and AT I4 for the modem NVRAM info; what has changed or been reconfigured since it last worked? -- Wed Jul 30 08:10:01 EST 2003 08:10:01 up 11:02, 2 users, load average: 0.12, 0.16, 0.10 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1+ & RH 9 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * In marriage, as in war, it is permitted to take every advantage of the enemy.
