Hi,my name is Daniel,and i'm a newbie to debian.I just subscribed to a couple of lists and i already have a problem. First of all,i know i'm supposed to go over the old archives in order to try to find the answer to my questions before posting but i am in a delicate position already..
So here it is: I just installed debian 2.2r3 on my pc (k6ii-266/64mb ram/3gb hdd) and i got an UsRobotics old Sportster internal Isa at 14400. People warned me that this could be a winmodem but i had no choice than this old thingie.Anyways someone on undernet told me that my modem isn't quite a winmodem and that i can make it work under linux. I am writing this letter from windows because i still don't know how to make the modem work under deb. I really need some advices,like i know how to edit stuff or the file system hierarchy and things like that (ok,not quite a newbie..:)) but i never dial-uped from linux,and i am really stucked. I have pppd and wvdial installed,i tried to config the modem with setserial,didn't succeed. So,if anyone is willing to guide me how to make the system recognize the modem and after that to set it up,i will be very grateful. I don't wanna get online from windows,all i want is the nice console and my BitchX. Thank you in advance, Dani. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
