OK, I managed to work it in this weekend. Here's the console log from the install:
---------- Selecting previously deselected package mwavem. (Reading database ... 93141 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking mwavem (from mwavem_2.0-4~5_i386.deb) ...

Here's what I got on the console: ---------- (Reading database ... 93228 files and directories currently installed.) Removing mwavem ... Stopping Mwave modem support: mwavemd. Purging configuration files for mwavem ... Processing triggers for man-db ... ---------- And here's what I got in /var/log/syslog: ---------- mwavemd: Cleaning up, unlinking /dev/Mwave-modem and exiting. ---------- It looks like everything works perfectly. After installing the package again, I am currently connected to the Internet via a PPP connection using this modem as I compose and send this e-mail. After all, that is the most important test: "Does the modem work?" And it does. Thanks for all your efforts. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
