I'm trying to get a U.S. Robotics 56K Fax PCI modem to work under
Slackware Linux 10.0.
I tried using /dev/modem under KPPP but to no avail. I only get a log
and the message that the modem is busy. On other ports (sorry can't
remember now since I'm using windows) I get
the message that slackware is trying to initialize the modem. I know
that the modem is under COM3 but I didn't configure the Slackware
installation to use a modem because I didn't have one at the time. How
can I get the modem to work? I have no drivers either. I was told it
didn't need any (and the box it came never had one). Windows supplies
it's own driver, does Slackware? If not, where may I find a Linux
driver (if I need it)? One reason why I am asking this is I have
pay-by-the-minute Dial-Up and browsing is expensive, plus I'm still a
Linux newbie)
