HOORAY! i'm getting close! thanks for all of your
help. I used /dev/modem under kppp and it queried my LT linmodem but it
did not respond. i tried to dial up any ways and it didnot initialize. when i
ran the query it found the modem but it did not give any response back.. under
my isapnp.conf the modem is set to irq 3 or 4 cant remember cauze i had to come
back to windoze.. my bios says its on 9 when my machine boots up.. could this be
the problem?

Hi Roy, Same basic configuration as me. Before we try
anything more complicated, you should go into the kppp , setup tab. In
there, under 'device' you should try the /dev/tty0 or /dev/tty1 . Also,
I have flow control set to xon/xoff. Under the 'modem' tab, there is a
'query' button. You could give that a try and see if your modem is
responding at all. I'm sure you're very close.
