Modem Set-up Problem
Hi,
I'm trying to get my modem to work on my thinkpad 755C under Slackware 96 linux, but I am unable to do so. I have made sure that all of the proper parameters were set, ie., /dev/cua0 is linked to /dev/modem. And the irq is set to 4. Upon boot linux even says "serial or modem detected".
However, when I run minicom it says that it initializes the modem, but the modem responds to nothing. When I run seyon it can't initialize. Could there be any wierd quircks about Slackware? Is my modem, Megahertz XJ4288, supported (I think it is.). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
