Hello,
I'm using a mandrake 8.2 ppc (beta, sorry I didn't have time to upgrade) on a 
first genetation ibook (g3 300, 6.4Go, 64Mo upgd to 128Mo, ati128 mobility).
Well, at home I always connect through my LAN, but now I need to make the 
modem work, and I didn't manage how to do it.

I found I had to modprobe the macserial module, after that, the dmegs outputs 
these lines :
macserial: serial modem detected
PowerMac Z8530 serial driver version 2.0
tty00 at 0xc9947020 (irq = 22) is a Z8530 ESCC (internal modem)
tty01 at 0xc994e000 (irq = 50) is a Z8530 ESCC

Then I tried to use the modem, at /dev/ttyS0 (w.o. devfs) or /dev/tts/0 (devfs 
like). I've no minicom, nor did I bring the CDs with me, so I tried kppp 
(there's a functionnality to query the modem via the ATI hayes commands)

Unfortunately, no matter the way I try (tried ttyS1, other programs), the 
modem never responds. Kppp says "sorry, the modem doesn't respond", then one 
minute later pops up a box saying "modem query timed out".

I also tried to echo somme commands to the modem :
echo ATZ > /dev/tts/0
or
echo ATDT3611 > /dev/tts/0
but they do nothing (they terminate and give the hand back after 3 seconds)

Did I forget something ?

Thanks in advance for your ideas.
