Hi all, I finally solved my comms problem with SuSE Linux - by changing my modem! I previously establish a connection but was not getting any data throughput from the serial device so I never got to a login prompt. Changing from the Us Robotics Sportster 56kbps to my old trusty Reveal 28.8kbps solved the problem. I can now use minicom. Also wvdial works a treat. So what's going on here? Does SuSE not support the world's number one modem? On another note, I can't get ezppp to work for one reason: when the connection is answered you need to send a cr to get a login prompt from the host. Ezppp (unlike wvdial) does not appear to send one automatically. How do I set this up in the script. I have tried 'Send \n' but that doesen't work. Any ideas? Thanks.
