You need to emerge hcfpcimodem; run hcfpci-config (I think this happens automatically by the ebuild script these days). Assuming all of this completes without errors you should either reboot and check what dmesg says, or run udevstart. Run /etc/init.d/hcfpci start. Assuming again that starting the script did not reveal any errors (both on the command line and on /var/log/messages) you should be good to add hcfpci to your default runlevel. When you fire up kppp choose /dev/modem, or /dev/ttySHCF0 (I think one should be a link to the other). All things being equal the above should just work. The symptom of a hanging kppp is probably an indication that the device you selected under the modem tab in the kppp, can't be found. If your problem is caused by a clash between serial devices, (IRQs and what have you) rather than you selecting the wrong one in kppp, then you may need to use the setserial command first to define a serial port (COM port) for your modem. I hope the above helps. -- Regards, Mick
