I am keen to try the Linux OS. I have tried quite a number - Ubuntu,
Gentoo, Knoppix, Slax, Backtrack, Linux Mint, Sabayon from live CD's,
but in all cases have not been able to dial-up my ISP. I am now led to
believe that this is because the live CD's don't include a driver
appropriate to my modem. I have just discovered your site and am
delighted to find that someone might be able to help me.
I have run scanModem as requested and attached ModemData.txt generated
by this program.
I have also looked at the other files in the Modem directory, but being
a Linux newbie, have not been able to understand them.
If you can advise me what driver I need and where I can get it and
explain in simple terms how to install it I will be eternally grateful
to you. Keep in mind that intially I want to be able to work from a live
CD. Only after I am satisfied that a distribution can do for me what I
need will I install it on
my hard drive. I live in Australia.
Presumably the driver you recommend for Sabayon will also be suitable
for the other OSs.
Many thanks in advance,
Russell Wheaton
