I have an old Pentium 75 that I'm setting up as a typing station (using vim at the command line) and I would like to get it connected to the internet. I installed Debian (sarge) but it can't find the modem. When I've tried Knoppix on it (very, very slow, but works--too cool), it finds the modem.

Is there some way to use what Knoppix has found to configure the modem under Debian? What files do I need to copy over and such?

Thanks.

Try using pppconfig (in your Debian install).
