Setting up a PCI modem on Red Hat Linux 7.0

2001-05-31 Thread Shannon Frick
Hello everyone, I am new to this list, and I am very glad that it exists! I cannot set up my modem for the life of me on Red Hat 7.0. I am using a Motorola SM56 linux-compatible modem, and I am trying to get Red Hat to detect that there is a modem on TTY3 (com port 4), but it is not sensing tha
