I have checked wvdial and have use minicom before. wvdial seems to used to dialup connect, not to make phone call I have used minicom to handle some circuit (it's likely to HyperTerminal on Windows), I think this can be use to dial because it handle modem with AT commands. If I know AT commands, I can make phone call too. Maybe dtmfdial is a solution too, but I don't know how to configure it yet.
any other idea, who have make phone call using modem on Linux before? Please let me know. Thank you all. ;) Thang Kieu On 8/11/07, Ken Irving <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Fri, Aug 10, 2007 at 11:20:20PM -0700, Jeff D wrote: > > On Sat, 11 Aug 2007, Kieu Minh Thang wrote: > >> > >> I have install dtmfdial, but it seems my Debian doesn't have driver for > >> modem.
