Did you Type PS in a console screen to make sure there is no other program
trying to access the modem?
Type
#/bin/bash>PS
Then if there is a ID trying to call the modem Kill it, Type
#/bin/bash>Kill <pid> Which is the Id that is calling to it Like Kill 145 etc..
That is a far as I can go. Have not run into this problem YET.

Subject: [newbie] modem horrors
I am configuring kppp dialer on mandrake 6.0. It tells me the modem is
busy now matter what. Any ideas? I know the modem ain't busy cause I
just switched over to win95 and started using it. Anyone know what I
might do? thanks in advance. Hey, it boots between Linux and Windoze
right snappy, and I didn't even have to mess with lilo. Wow!
adios, Steve
