Have a older thinkpad with an internal softmodem. Still working on a working driver but in the meantime i would like to use my PCMCIA Thinfax modem. This modem I still use regularly with my HP200LX palmtop. The modem seems to be recognized but I have no idea how I can address the PCMCIA modem in my 10.2 laptop. Read a lot about the new PCMCIA card setup but that did not help me much. Somebody can help me out?

Hi,

I would start as follows:

1. open up a terminal (ex konsole), get root and type (without quotes) "tail -f /var/log/messages"

You should use tailf instead of tail -f.

2. insert your PCMCIA modem and look what is showing up in /var/log/messages .

3. Proceed from there

Also, you might try dmesg to see what it reports. Ken -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
