Admiral LSD 0 Posted November 7, 2002 You shouldn't need a driver as such, just make sure that the symbolic link /dev/modem is pointing to the right port (Internal modems typically contain their own UART and therefore connect to a "virtual" COM port) which I would imagine is COM2 under DOS and therefore /dev/ttyS1 under Linux. So, change to the /dev directory as root and type the following at a shell prompt: ls -la modem if it exists make sure that theres something like modem -> /dev/ttyS1 (or whatever port the modem is configured for) and if it isn't or doesn't exist at all, type the following: del modem (needed only if it exists but is pointed to the wrong port) ln -s /dev/ttyS1 modem (again, changing ttyS1 to whatever port the modem is configured for) You can then use whatever PPP configuration tool you wish to set it up to connect to the net.
