I can't get the modem on this machine to work correctly. It HAS worked with previous versions of SuSE (6.4 namely), so I know it can. I downloaded the appropriate .rpm from heby.de and on install it gave back an error, so I unpacked the 6.00b7 archive and ran ./build_module. This ran through with all positive messages, the two modules were installed (lt_serial.o and lt_modem.o) and they load. wvdial runs, reports it's waiting for a dialtone, then times out and trys again. minicom finds the modem, and ATwhatever commands get back an "OK", but there is no sound, and the modem doesn't appear to get a dialtone. The same machine under Windows 98 dials and connects now (dual boot), so presumably there's nothing wrong with the modem. alsa is in and plays sounds. Thanks in advance for any help. regards, Bret
