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:
