Good thought, but no. It's not syncing up with anything external. In order to get it online you have to dial out, just like with an old-fashioned telephone modem (Hayes and US Robotics and the like). This is long before we get to that point because we can't even find the modem until it changes its identity and sets up the /dev/ttyUSB0 device. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com DRY CLEANER BUSINESS FOR SALE ~ http://www.canadadrycleanerforsale.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
