It's an internal modem and not a pcmcia modem - if it was, I think it would work no problem, considering I really didn't have to do anything to get my pcmcia network card to work correctly.
By the way, the notebook is not from a major vendor - it is called the Voyager 1330, advertised in Computer Shopper. It's beautiful, and all the powersaving features, etc, work great once the kernel is recompiled. -----Original Message----- From: Ian Lynagh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-user@lists.debian.org <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Date: Tuesday, July 07, 1998 2:47 PM Subject: Re: Getting notebook internal modem to work.

That's what ATX0 is for (don't wait for dialtone) OK, if it works. My dad said that when he used his mobile phone with the PCMCIA modem you do not get the dialing sound, so I presumed it was something the modem got from the telco.
