Hello all, I have been given a Dynalink v.90 USB modem. I have plugged it into my system: ( P3 866Mhz 128Mb Ram 20Gb hdd Gigabyte Motherboard GeForce Graphics ) Alas the modem setup in yast2 does not detect the modem. I have found that the device falls under "acm" device types, and have a "modprobe acm" in my boot.local to force the issue. I am no modem expert and have only used one once before - an old internal one many years ago before my SuSE installation. Any advice on getting this modem to work will be appreciated. One final note - I have a dual boot with Win98 and the modem has been tested there (dialup to my office) and does work. I would prefer to use the internet from Linux to try and curb the viruii roaming the internet. Many Thanks -Dale
