Can someone provide a little help to a novice Linux User? I have installed the Caldera OpenLinux 1.3 on a Pentium 120, 80MB RAM, 2GB machine. The computer is an IBM Aptiva with an integrated sound/modem/fax/voice card. (Don't give me that funny look, my brother gave it to me.) I have Windows 95 installed on it also. I would like to get my internet service running. I have tried to install the modem in Linux without success. The modem is a 28K baud. Windows tells me that the modem is installed on COM 1. Whenever I setup Linux with the necessary parameters (/ttys0, Xon/Xoff, etc.) Linux tells me that the modem is busy.
BTW: The modem works fine in Windows. Is it possible that I have the dreaded WinModem?!? How can I find out? Is a driver available to use a WinModem? Why is the cold water faucet always on the right? I would appreciate any help that you could give me. Thanks, Dennis Sledge Designer SAFT America <<Sledge, Dennis.vcf>>
