No, I had been using the 14.4 modem and got tired of it. I was just trying to learn how to make the internal modem work. It has been working under MS for sometime now. I had Linux running since last night, but needed to run a MS program. When I tried to reboot Linux, thats when it hung up. I have tried to reboot it twice after that, and it hangs at the same spot every time. Mike BTW- it is during the /etc/init.d portion of booting that it hangs. It activates the swap, checks the root (fsck?), finds the partition clean, and then it stops.
