I have been trying to install linux on a Starmax 3000/200, everything else works fine, but I could not make the ppp work (I tried both the debian and Linuxppc distribution). I checked the modem (external, orginaly macintosh oriented, but work with intel-based pc too) and script on my intel-based pc, everything works fine, I am out of my knowledge, if any Linux and Macintosh guru can give me a clue, that will be great. The error message is "LCP: timeout sending config-requests", I checked some mailing archives on this and other web sites, someone suggested that it might be caused by wrong settings about the UART type of the serial port. On my machine, the dmesg and setserial -g /dev/ttyS* told me that UART unknown for both serial ports (ttyS0 and ttyS1), and whenever I tried to set UART and/or speed, the machine just frozen, but I could reboot it by pressing the three keys. Any suggestion? What is the correct UART type of serial port on the Starmax 3000/200 (desktop)? Thanks in advance, John
