Hello Chaps ! Sent a copy of linux to my brother in law, trying to convince him to give up with MSwindows. Myself i configured my modem without problem, it is serial and external. His one is internal. Under MSwindows it appears as COM3. Nevertheless ttyS2 doesn't work. How is it configured under Linux ? (yast2 SuSE 7.1 doesn't recognize it automatically). It is V92. I point out in Yast2 possibilities as ttyACM0, under kppp there is ttyI0, etc,... (why that difference between wvdial and kppp?). Are those the ways to connect an internal modem ? Note : he is at a distance of 500kms from and his configuration was done by phone,.... Rgds to all Jacek

This is not enough information. PCI or ISA? HSP or hardware? Try having him mail you a copy of the results of `lspci -vv' and posting it here. lspnp is a similar tool, which may or may not be included in a default SuSE install; if his modem is ISA, lspnp should find it. With this information, we can at least try to find out if his modem *can* work or not. ===== -- -=|JP|=- Hit me! - http://www.xanga.com/cowboydren/ Jon Pennington | Debian 2.3 -o) cowboydren @ yahoo . com | Auto Enthusiast /\\ Kansas City, MO, USA | ICQ UIN 69 67 29 31 _\_V __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
