I am installing Debian 2.2r3 on an IBM T22 portable. Things are working very well (including support for the 1400*1050 screen) on my LAN.
Now I need to configure the modem and get dial-up ISP support working. I have never done this on any Linux installation and I believe I do not even have the modem working on the T22. I installed minicom and tried using /dev/ttyS0 - /dev/ttS3 for the serial port. When minicom comes up I get a blank screen. I would think I could just type ATZ and see the modem respond "OK" to verify that it is working. This does not happen. So - question number one is --> how do I know if the modem is working on the T22 and if it is not, does anyone have any tips on how to get it working? Regards, Randy
