Hello,
i borrowed a d-link external modem from a friend of mine. i have rhl 7.3 fresh install on my sys. kudzu didn't detect it. i searched on google to find out that "/usr/sbin/kudzu -p" does detect it & it did. in fact it detected it & also my d-link sm56 internal modem, but i cudn't initialize it 2 work using kppp. kppp says "sorry, could not open modem"
i cud initialize the modem (external) using wvdialconf. when i ran wvdial, it said that the modem was connected to the net, but all the internet apps (mozilla, kmail, lynx, yahoo msgr, etc) i tried said cud not locate host.
what seems 2 b the problem?
i tried searching 4 a driver so that i cud get it configured automatically 4 use thru kppp, but cudn't find 1.
how do i configure using kppp?
the output (only part pertaining to modems) of "/usr/sbin/kudzu -p" is pasted below:
class: OTHER bus: SERIAL detached: 0 device: ttyS1 driver: ignore desc: "RSS|0240 56000bps External Fax Voice Modem" pnpmfr: RSS pnpmodel: 0240 pnpcompat: RSS0240 pnpdesc: 56000bps External Fax Voice Modem
