linmodem????
Great! Thanks, Alan and Jeff, for the information. This works for me, too, on a Thinkpad 600X.

Yes, yes, yes.
ftp'ed ltmodem-5.78d from http://walbran.org/sean/linux/stodolsk
compiled without error on 2.4.1-pre2, but "ltinst" failed to install on 2.4
You'll have to fix ltinst for 2.4 by modifying this line ...
cp ltmodem.o /lib/modules/uname -r/kernel/drivers/char
Tested on IBM 240Z and it's running ok.
# cu -l ttyLT0 Connected.
ati
LT V.90 Data+Fax Modem Version 5.78
OK
Thanks,
Jeff.
Thanks,

I haven't, and in fact keep a 2.2.14 kernel available (and in my lilo config) just so I can use the linmodem binary. It's a pain having to reboot when I want to use the modem, but it's the only solution I've found.

Haven't tried it, but it claims to work.

And it works for me under Mandrake 7.1 on an acer330T; I haven't tried the 2.4 trick yet, and there was a simple patch to one include file to use ppp under 2.2.16, but beyond that, it works flawlessly.
