In the 10 years I've been workong with Linux i've never come across a distro that wants an empty file named /etc/resolve.conf. /etc/resolv.conf otoh (notice the absence of the 2nd 'e') is mandatory of you want to use nameserver(s).
That's a typo.
It is useless to leave it empty though, read up on 'man 5 resolver' if you want to know what is expected in that file. How this would have anything to do with a non-responsive modem is beyond me btw., but maybe your xtal ball has more powerful magic than mine (you did get an official licence for that did you?)
That's a documented and known bug: I knew first about it around November 2003. I thought it would have been corrected since then. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFCo6A3tTMYHG2NR9URAixqAJ9AAk3xay9ltVS8LNjg9Kpr3Rx7mACfRm34 0s/23CSrmRhE8qKXZkZFETY= =MpwQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
