I forgot to mention that about a week ago I posted a message to the Compaq support forum asking about Linux support for this modem. However, it is moderated and I have not seen it appear on the forum. I wonder if it got censored out or they haven't had the time to answer it yet. Maybe since it is a Lucent modem (I think), there are other issues involved.
BTW, the Linux laptop site is excellent. I notified the maintainer of the presario 1920 page about the winmodem problem (he had not configured his modem since he had LAN access) as I felt that it would be of interest to anyone thinking of installing linux on their 1920. =========================================== Charles Lewis, Director of Administrative Computing Southwestern Adventist University, Keene, TX (817)556-4720 [EMAIL PROTECTED] FAX (360)397-7952 =========================================== > ... > > Are Win modems ever going to be supported?
