It is definatly a pcmcia modem. I have manged to get KPPP to see something
but it is not my modem as when I try and connect it sits there trying to
initialise the modem.
In /etc/pcmcia I tried to serial start Modem and it comes back saying
/dev/modem doesn't exist and removes the link. Any suggestions ?

Installed Mandrake 7.0, no problems, sound, network, etc works fine. The

Can anyone suggest how to get it working ? It's a 3ccm156b in a Dell
lattitude cpi.
Is that *actually* a PCMCIA modem, or is it simply an internal laptop
modem?
If it's the built-in, it's likely a Winmodem (they take up less space =)
) in which case, you might try and see if you can collect the drivers at
www.linmodems.org.
Keep your expectations low, though, that way you won't be disappointed.
