    Hello,

      I have recently intalled SuSe 9.1 in my laptop. The computer has an
    winmodem that it's not supported by Linux. So, I decided to by a PCMCIA
    modem. In concret, I have the c56cls by Conceptronic. This modem is
    supported by Linux, but when I try to connect, SuSe gives me an error. It
    says that it cannot open the modem! It's very strange! When I start the
    system, cardmgr beeps twice and it seems that it configures the modem... The
    first thing that I thought was that maybe the modem wasn't supported by
    Linux but... If I run the machine with Knoppix Live cd, the modem works
    perfectly and I can connect without problems! To connect to the net, I use
    the dialer KPPP, and it is well configured.
      Does anybody have an idea that could explain the reason of the problem?
    Does anybody know how I should overcome the problem?

    Thanks a lot,
    Josep
