Re: Modem doesn't respond

[davidturetsky]

I had the same problem. It turned out I was trying to use a "Win" modem which is apparently generally not supported in Linux   My problem went away when I installed a second USR "non-Win" modem. While I still have some configuring to do, it's clear I now get dial tone and dial out to my provider   Check the model of your modem for the telltale "win" nomenclature   David ----- Original Message ----- From: Pee To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Sent: Tuesday, February 15, 2000 9:05 PM Subject: Modem doesn't respond I have an internal 56k v90 USRobotic fax modem connected in Windows to COM2 and in Linux to ttyS1. It is working in Windows, but in Linux I always get a message saying that the modem does not respond. Do you know how to solve this problem? I tried on RedHat 6.1, Corel Linux, and Debian 2.1 and I always get the same message. TIA - Pee
