Hi, A request to devels as well as anyone with free time monitoring the list :)
Can someone who is testing feisty on a machine with a winmodem test whether the scanmodem tool is working there and report their experience at the *bug report*? Bug report at https://launchpad.net/bugs/42454 It's not hard at all. The following link provides information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/ScanModem Afaik, it cannot break anything in your system. All it does is to tell you what kind of winmodem you have... I cannot try bc I'm using a production machine with Dapper with which I cannot dare to experiment... and the cdimage server isn't working for me (no answer from server). PS. If you have free time, you could even try to make your winmodem dial somewhere in order to test the wiki documentation[1] (which needs to be offline) and experience what winmodem users experience with Ubuntu. You probably won't like the latter. Thanks a lot Sincerely.

Modems are clearly a very difficult area and we are going to need the developers' input before we can move any further, I think. -- Documentation should include greater detail about setting up difficult network hardware https://launchpad.net/bugs/42454 -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
