I use mine in 3.2 since in 3.3, X doesn't work properly with my laptop. So, I haven't tried it in 3.3.

Thanks alot, I finally got my modem working with knoppix, or alteast, I think I did. There's one problem. Knoppix can talk to my modem, and connect to the net, but once it does, it won't do anything. I try to start Gaim or Mozilla and it won't do anything. I know it's dial-up and it's not suppose to be fast, but I know it's not a speed factor, for instance, I try to go to www.google.com and it just sits there, same with Gaim, after about 15 minutes and still nothing. Any suggestions? Did I perhaps do something wrong?

You probably need a default route and dns resolution.

ifconfig (when its up)
this should give you a device ppp0
you need to make ppp0 the default route

route add default gw [ip add of ppp0]
then you need dns resolution....
find the ip of the dns server(s) of your isp and add this to your /etc/resolv.conf

Thank you funkea very much! Without your explanation I did not know how to start. Than, I was lazy and lucky - I did ./build_module than ./instal2 and ./autoload and modem works! They saved modules to /lib/modules/2.4.20-xfs. Modem is Lucent PCI winmodem.

Hi, I have the same problem installing my lucent modem from live CD. I am quiet a new to knoppix as i have never installed modem on it.
Please help me and explain your steps how did u install your lucent PCI winmodem. I hope it would help me a lot.

Please explain what are the steps for ./build , ./instal2 and ./autoload. Or please tell me any link where those instructions are written in simple form. If you installed your modem with the help of steps mailed by funkea then please tell me how did you do step 10 and what is meant by lt_modem.o and lt_serial.o and from where i can get these files

Please reply as i need your help. Thanks.
