Thanks for these suggestions, which (especially the first one, about dtfm-dial) seem to me a logical and elegant way to proceed. I've d/l and extracted the dtfm-dial tar ball, and would like to install it. I have two problems with this:
There's a much easier way :) Head over to http://http://software.opensuse.org/search, enter dtmf-dial and click search and you'll be presented packages to download or install.

Yes, I've found it. Thank you. But it turns out that KAddressbook already knows about "ant-phone", so I have installed that app, making dtmf-dial redundant. That leaves me with the question: Now that KAddress presumably knows how to reach the modem and dial it, how am I to tell KAddressbook which number I want dialed? The Home number, Work, Fax, Cellular, ....? I see nothing to click on, or otherwise to stimulate, tol make it do this trick. No, it is not in the friendly "documentation" (quotes intentional). I have, by the way, also asked this question on the KDE user list; evidently nobody there knows either. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
