Configuiring modem
How do you configure a serial modem in ZenWalk? How do you connect to the internet? Other distros have "wizards" that make it a snap but I'm at sea with this one. Thanks for any help.

For the "hardware" install i remember ther is a question about it in install script.
After, you have to use ppp tools (ppp-setup, ...) you can take a look at : http://support.zenwalk.org/index.php/topic,870.0.html (howto) http://support.zenwalk.org/index.php/topic,2956.0.html (x dialer) http://support.zenwalk.org/index.php/topic,1489.0.html (dial on demand) |
Thanks Guth. I'm going to wipe the Zenwalk partition and reinstall to see what I might have missed. All very simple thanks to Partition Magic. I'll give it another shot, but I'm getting the feeling that I belong in a less elegant but more user friendly distro for a novice like PCLinuxOS or Ubuntu. Best Regards.

I also want to learn how to config my modem, bu i have no place to do that but on holidays. And here and now there is no way to connect. But i have a question too: how does one find out to which number (phone) to call/connect to? And what about username and password? |
