I ran modprobe lt_serial as root and I got this: Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.21-0.13mdk/ltmodem/lt_modem.o will taint the kernel: non-GPL license - UNKNOWN See http://www.tux.org/lkml/#export-tainted for information about tainted modules Then when I ran ln -s /dev/lt_serial /dev/modem it accepted the command but Penggy still says: Can't open device /dev/modem: No such file or directory (2) Fatal error, exiting. In the /dev directory, the word modem is boxed in red and flashing in Konsole. I really really appreciate Frans, John, and Stephen's help with this. I am leaving for Mexico for 12 days at 5PM PST this evening and if I don't have the modem working I'll be semi-screwed as I need Internet access to keep my business running. So if you guys could "give me all you've got" I'd be grateful. I do feel like a jerk asking for free help in a hurry but I really don't have any other choice right now. Thanks a lot guys! - Grant
