| 159321 | 2003-07-13 04:52:00 | Hi, have run scanmodem and found what rpm file I need, I have installed this, but when I try dialing out (with KPPP) it still comes up with can't open modem. Using Red Hat 8 the installer i used was ltmodem-kv-2.4.18_14-8.26a9-1.i686.rpm Any ideas what my next step is? Havne't been able to find much on the web. Most things talking about finding the driver, which as far as I am aware I have done. |

| 159323 | 2003-07-13 07:40:00 | If you can't find any instructions on the page you got it from, have a look at what was included in the package. Have a look in /usr/share/doc for anything that looks related. It should be in a directory called ltmodem or similar. The following will give you a list of files installed (assuming ltmodem is the name of the package): rpm -q --list ltmodem |

| 159324 | 2003-07-13 09:05:00 | It is a winmodem. Lucent with DSP chipset, the ID number is 11C1:044A. In one of the readme files it says that if it is with the range 11c1:0440-045c then it will be supported. Not clued up enough on hex to know if this is in the range or not. |

| 159325 | 2003-07-13 12:14:00 | Yes, its in the range. 044A (1098 decimal) is greater than 0440 (1088) and less than 045c (1116). :-( Make sure the readme is up to date before you give up. |

| 159326 | 2003-07-13 14:27:00 | To be honest if you can afford it I wouldn't muck around with a WinModem I would buy an external modem as they are true modems. Some USB modems are not true modems. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
