Got my CD’s. Tuesday lunchtime

Got my Win2k Laptop last Friday

Chucked the CD #1 in the drive, 1945hrs Tuesday night

Followed the bouncing ball

Resized my partitions on the fly

Worked beautifully !!! Up and running 2105 hrs

Now running dual boot, with KDE or GNOME or any other windows manager of my choice, and loving it.

 

HOWEVER.

 

I cannot get my dial up access to the internet working.

The laptop is a Compaq EVO N800v P4 with on board modem. The modem is running under Com4 when used from the other operating system.

I have used mcc to experiment with the modem from /dev/modem to /dev/ttys0 to /dev/ttys3 (Com1 to com4). When I try and connect it says it cannot find the modem, When I use /dev/ttys0 as the modem location it seems to find the modem but it still doesn’t work. It is expecting OK when communicating or trying to initialize the modem but doesn’t get anywhere.

 

Can anyone or everyone help me please.
