345751 2005-04-16 11:28:00 I had my conexant modem working fine under mandrake 10.1 and now I have 10.2 2005 limited edition and when I run hsfconfig I get no countries in the country list and cannot set one.

Linuxant.com suggests creating /dev/modem manually but I cannot fin out how.

Any help please?

ls -al /dev/m*

list all directories and files in /dev/ that start with m, look for modem

if its not there

mkdir /dev/modem
then ls -al /dev/m*

you may also have to make a symbolic link but we'll deal with that later

10.1 was great but 10.2 is een better with gnome 2.8 and KDE 3.3.2
