I need some help on getting my modem to work under drake 9, it is an AvTek megamodem 2000, which runs under winxp on a generic 56k type driver. however under drake in Kppp i get "modem ready", then simply "initializing modem", but under linuxconf it wont detect a modem, even when ports are specified. basically, its really starting to shit me, and i have to use XP to get a net connection, which i dont need to prove, is not cool. please help with any ideas you may have. I am a relative newbie so please dumb it down a little. Thank you very much Scott Dietrich
