    dialup modem under fedora core 3 (FC3)

    I am noticing however that the system doesn't seem to recognise when the connection is established.. I'm using Gnome, and there is a nifty applet called "modem lights" to connect and disconnect your modem. It shows 3 states: disconnected, connecting, and connected. It doesn't show the connected state even if the modem is connected (I can use a web browser successfuly). Also, I'm trying to use Firestarter 1.0.3 and it doesn't detect my modem either. So, enabling the firwall kills my connection. Any ideas about this issue? Thanks again!

    dialup modem under fedora core 3 (FC3)

    wow.. that worked. I am using Grub and on bootup I just added acpi=off to the kernel parameters and now I'm responding to you over the very modem that had problems. Thank you very much for your help! Now I guess I need to figure out how to make this permanent. I don't think it will be all that hard to do though.
  3. Hello to everyone. I'm having a problem with my HCF modem (using a Linuxant driver) under Fedora Core 3. Using the driver, it worked under RH9. I installed the new driver for FC3 and the driver reports everything normal. But trying to get Fedora to use the modem it does the following (which I can hear): 1.pick up phone, dial, do nothing. 2.hang up and repeat #1 infinatly. I tried an external modem (28.8k) and Fedora can't communicate with it correctly either. I Tried minicom with both modems. With the external modem I could send it commands, but responses would not come back to me. The internal modem wouldn't do anything. "echo ath1 > /dev/modem" will get me a dial tone on the internal modem. I suppose my question is: are the dialup scripts/methods different in FC3 from RH9? Any ideas would be geratly appreciated! -Jon
