problem with new modem.

[SeT]

i jus got a new modem today. finally trying to get that working and get away from windows. anyway, i read the nhf here about installing the modem. it's a us robotics performance pro 56k internal... when i try the "cat /proc/pci" the only thing that somewhat looks like what's in the nhf is :

"Serial Controler: US Robotics/3Com 56k FaxModem Model 5610 (rev 1)
IRQ11
I/O at 0xd000 [0xd007]"

then when i try the setserial command for that info(the rest the same as the nhf) it comes back just saying 9A. should it be doing that? the modem i on com5 in windows so i'm assuming the same (ttyS4) in linux. should it be returning that 9A? anone else using rh8 and know if there's anything else you're supposd to do?

I also have the 5610 modem. You have determined that your modem is on ttyS4.
Now you need to see where /dev/modem is linked. On the command line
"ls -l /dev/modem"
If it is linked to ttyS4 you are set to use kppp. If not as root issue this command to link it to ttyS4
"ln -sf /dev/ttyS4 /dev/modem"

Now kppp will see your hardware modem.
