This is a really stupid question, so feel free to flame away. ;-) I got hold of the PPP-How-To and examined it's contents with interest, it's all quite digestable, apart from the fact that it tells you what to do but not much about why you're doing it. I'll work that all out with other FAQ's, etc eventually, so thats not the problem.
It mentioned /dev/modem, which I don't appear to have. Have I missed a package somewhere? Help! Plus on the side I'm having serious trouble getting any decent screen modes out of my SiS 5596 (86C205 chipset), which is rather annoying. I'm just picking the Generic VGA driver, is there a catered one which I don't know about? The problem is that the video memory is none existant, it uses on board memory instead, it's one of these built-into the motherboard thingys. I'm getting.......
