I'm baaaaaack!

Now I've got Fedora bootloader working, I've got a
holnuther problem:
FC5 doesn't detect my modem. I've queried every
location offered in the
KPPP menu and shot craps every time.

The device is an external USR hardware modem. It's
plugged into a USB
port. Xandros detected the modem at location "Comm
8", if that means
anything here. How can I get Fedora to find the
hardware and use it?

Thanks for any help.

Jimmy

Jimmy,
Become superuser
$ su -
psswd: *****
# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

will scan the modem ports till it finds a valid ones.
After it finds it use that one in KPPP. Refer to

for help/other issues when using wvdial.

Regards,

Antonio
