PPP ?

Hi there,

is it *really* impossible to establish an internet PPP connection with a win-modem (god, i hate that word) ? I still have to boot winblows to email and visit fuckmicrosoft.com ....

Help!

badkarma:
There are some winmodem drivers for linux, I wouldn't bet any money on it though that you have a winmodem which has a linux driver (just go to a PC Discount (beurs) and buy a cheap-o--nonwin-modem there)

foobar:
Any idea where i can find'em ??

voidmain:
For this post I will become google.  Search: "winmodem linux drivers". Answer: www.linmodems.org

And if you search around this site you will find another thread on the subject where I helped someone get their winmodem working under Linux (I think they were running Mandrake but I don't recall).

P.S. I take that back, the thread where I helped someone else get their winmodem running is no longer on this message board.  Must have rolled off because it was too long ago... Sorry about that, but I would be glad to help you if you get stuck following the directions on www.linmodems.org.

it will prolly be because of that server hickup (wit h the heatsink falling off and all) a while back void, but the topic was definitly there, I concur
