I use my laptop with Slink and Win98 50-50. Still I have not been able to get the modem or sound card to work under Linux on my Sony Vaio 505 TX. I have tried xisp as somebody suggested here, and I get a message ' pppd returned 1!' when I try to dial. I have tried kppp and I got the message 'pppd is not properly installed!' I have the feeling that upgrading to potato may help.
