Okay, I formatted my HD and installed Windows '98 and Mandrake Linux (on seperate partitions) It took me a while, but I finally got the modem to work on the Windows partition, but I can't get it to work in Linux. When I use the dial-up program and hit "Connect" it just either says "Contacting modem...Modem is in use." or "Could not detect modem."
I've tried reconfiguring it in the controls a few times. I made sure it was set up like it was in Windows - same port and drivers. But when I go into Hardware>Modems and click "Configure" on that, it tells me it can't configure the modem drivers that it's supposed to use, and gives me a website to check out. (the irony.)
Yeah...any help would be greatly appreciated.
