And I wouldn't hold out a great deal of hope for success. Prior to my present laptop, I owned an IBM ThinkPad iSeries 1200, and I never, ever got its internal modem to work on GNU/Linux. If the grandparent's laptop is anything like that one, it's an AC'97 modem which as of this writing still doesn't have a proper Linux driver. Frankly, I've given up on this. To do dialup, I use an external modem. :( -- By their own reckless arrogance they perished: childish fools, They ate the Oxen of the Sun, and lost their hope of Home. http://stormwyrm.blogspot.com/ _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
