How can I configure modem in fedora core 4

my modem is an internal modem

My modem is Agere SystemS PCI Soft Modem and is attached a COM3

what you need is the Linux version of the modem drivers that you are using in Windows (the Com3 bit is a software version of a Com port, and needs to be replicated in Linux).

So, goto :- http://www.heby.de/ltmodem

Follow the links for Fedora and download the driver that has the same numbers in it as your Kernel (type uname -r in a terminal window to find that out). Then install the driver (rpm -ihv filename.rpm , where the filename.rpm is replaced by the one you downloaded.

This will then create a device (akin to a Com3) called something like /dev/ttyLT0 and make a symbolic to this called /dev/modem . You can use either of these in your dialer.

have fun and welcome to the world of linmodems.

Thank you for your help I'll see ,I hope that my problem go without return

But I'm using KNOPPIX 3.6 too for downloading the the driver can I use

the link of Debian ( KNOPPIX is a version from Debian I think so)

But this link is full of new links can you give me the right one.

you could try the Debian drver, I honestly don'y know if iy will work. As to the links. What you are being presented with is a list of folders with driver files in them. Search these folders for a file with the correct kernel number in its name (eg. the file called "ltmodem-2.6.8-1-686_8.31a8_i386.deb" is for the kernel 2.6.8-1-686, get the idea). So look in the folders (links) for the correct file, download it and install it, and with a bit of luck it will work, but no guarantees.
