Oh, I think I'm in trouble.<BR>
<BR>
I have coverted this wonderful machine into a Linux box using RH9 and a KDE Desktop. I have solved nearly everything, but have been unable to resolve the non-recognition of the modem.<BR>
I have installed the latest generic HSFlinmodem drivers and they appear to have installed perfectly. However, the modem s not recognised by KPPP and I cannot use it as a network device as it returns an error message saying that ppp0 suffered an Error 7.<BR>
<BR>
lspci -v returns some info of which there is an ominous line that says:<BR>
<BR>
I/O ports at 1c00 [disabled] [size=256]<BR>
<BR>
During installation, I get the following at the end:<BR>
<BR>
e-compiling HSF modules for kernel 2.4.20-9_ajg4, using source directory<BR>
/lib/modules/2.4.20-9_ajg4/build. Please wait..<BR>
Re-compilation and installation of HSF modules succeeded.<BR>

Your HSF modem should now be accessible as /dev/ttySHSF0<BR>
or through the symbolic link /dev/modem.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
It may say that but it doesn't want to go!<BR>
<BR>
Could anyone cast some light on this? Sorry, I suspect my newbie status will be a factor.<BR>
<BR>
Cheers<BR>
