80884	2002-10-16 11:16:00	first off there has always been a problem with winmodems under linux secondly an hcf modem is not an winmodem lucent is winmodem conexant is hcf (used to rockwell) thirdly dump the winmodem and buy a hcf based modem as linux and this type of modem seem to play nice with each other	xtremeXP (1946)
80885	2002-10-16 16:55:00	I also have Mandrake and a Winmodem. Could you please give me the link for the drivers as I have never been able to find them. It would be much appreciated.	Tony S. (450)
80886	2002-10-16 19:20:00	do a search for linmodem hcf is a type of winmodem, not brand. connextant is a brand as is LT (lucent) not all winmodems will work with Linux, and those that do can be tricky. My theory is, if you followed the instructions, and it still doesn't work, by a hardware modem. You can waste a lot of time trying to beat a dead horse.. try www.limodems.org i think SiK	SoniKalien (792)

80888	2002-10-16 20:49:00	Ok that didn't seem to work www.mbsi.ca those lines where.... localhost pppd[5979] pppd 2.4.1 started by nigel, uid 501 localhost pppd[5979]:using interface ppp0 localhost pppd[5979]:connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttySHSFO localhost /etc/hotplug/net.agent: assuming ppp0 is already up localhost pppd[5979]:LCP terminated by peer localhost pppd[5979]:hangup(SIGHUP) localhost pppd[5979]:modem hangup localhost pppd[5979]:connection terminated localhost pppd[5979]:exit ??????: /etc/hotplug/net.agent:NET unregister event not supported the questionmarks in the last line are because I can't read my own handwriting (I should have been a doctor not a computer student) thanks Nigel	Nigel Thomson (629)
80889	2002-10-27 03:11:00	Had another go at playing with settings but to no avail, just dials saysconnecting then "exit status 16" as usual, is this something to do with the modem not getting enough CPU time? and as for WVDial will it work through KDE and how do I set it so my browsers know where to connect to the internet. thanks in advance nigel	Nigel Thomson (629)
80890	2002-10-28 09:01:00	Hi Nigel, Have a look at this wvdial page (open.nit.ca). It should answer most of your queries concerning wvdial. I just use the command line/shell version of it that came with my installation. My version of Linux is rather old (Red Hat 6.2) so it's difficult for me to upgrade most things easily. I believe a graphical interface is now available for it. Good luck! :-)	Rod J (451)
80891	2002-11-01 05:15:00	Greetings from Linux I finally have my modem working and I am stoked, the problem turned out to be the password, (don't laugh), for some reason the password I have been typing in to Xtra on a regular basis didn't work through Linux, but when I changed my password, ( as all security concious pixies do), it all worked so thanks every one for their help' 2 quick questions why isn't wordwrap working when I enter this post and how do I make my browser autodial the net when it is clicked on and also how do I get a scroll mouse working under linux? I have done it under RH 7.3 at tech but I'm not sure how to do it here Once again thankyou everyone	Nigel Thomson (629)
