[newbie] modem trouble

[Lionel Barrow]

Hey guys,             I was using WinLinux with my internal ISA modem and everything was cool with kppp so I decided to try Mandrake and now all of a sudden my modem refuses to work with the same kppp. I am desperate here guys, how do I get it respond now. I tried querying the modem in kppp but to no avail. I can get nothing out of it. Am I domed to buying an external modem. Thanks in advance:)                                                                                                                                                       Salty1
