Have you tried the modem tools, eg, modemtool ? You'll need to do this as root. As for drivers, drivers for Windows won't work with Linux. -----Original Message----- From: Howard Chard [mailto:hchard@uswest.net] Sent: Wednesday, May 24, 2000 3:24 PM To: PLUG Subject: New-newbie I have as much time with Linux as it took to load a boxed version of Redhat 6.2 with KDE workstation. The computer I loaded it on is aPentium III, with 10GIG HD and everything on the motherboard. Sound card Modem, graphics card all on motherboard. The system was boxed without documentation but did include a CD of Linux by technology Ltd called SOHO Server V2.1 and another disk called personal computer that says it has drivers on it. I am unable to access the modem with redhat. I was able to when this other Linux was loaded. I wish to know how to load the drivers for this modem from one of these disks. I do not know what the drivers would be called no which directory on redhat they should be loaded. I also do not know how to initiate the drivres after they are loaded. Can anyone help me? Also is there a d9ifference betwnne drivers used on Linux as opposed to those used on MS.
