Please help me
 
i have a conexant HCF v.90 56k Data, Fax, speakerphone PCI modem on com4, i belive that this is a hardware modem. now it works fine in win98 (with a driver) and win2000 without any driver.
 
i am also running linux mandrake 7.2 with KDE 2.0.0 and i cant seem to get the modem working. upone recomendation i have been trying to use kppp 2.0.
 
i have it set up as follows
device /DE/ttyS3 (which i belive is com4)
flow control CRTSCTS
connection speed 115200
 
upon quirying the modem i got the following responce "sorry, modem busy"
 
now i have tryed a couple of things like using the Gnomeppp and remove fax software and other programs from rpm. but still no luck.
 
i am a total newbie with linux but i am a windows and mac tech support agent so i am quite tech. i am still lerning so if you can help me then it would be very wecome.
 
also anyone any idea why every time that i add/remove linux software that win2000 installs new hardware? although there is nothing achually installed into the device managers?
 
thanks for any help
