Hi Marvin, I figured out how to load the different kernal - just click "ESC" during the GRUB loader process at boot time and select it. Sorry to bother you with that. I made a symlink from /dev/ttyAGS3 to /dev/modem and GNOME PPP says I'm connected to my Earthlink dialup provider. However, I seem to be unable to connect to the web (http://www.google.com for example). Strangely Gnome PPP also says "no modem detected on your system" when I click on the "detect" button, even though it shows packets sent and received for an active connection. I also don't get any audio output of the modem connection.
