I have exactly this problem with my PC and every Unix-like OS i ever tried to use!
I try to get online with kppp and it tells me, that my modem is occupied..
Offc ourse i tried if i had selected the wrong 'COM' but it never really worked.
So is this because i have the wrong modem?
Or do i just have to get drivers? Or did i forget something important?
@DOS:
I think after i never had any working internet-connection with linux my advice will probably be not that great, but according to what i read you have just to start kppp, insert the infos from your provider and click 'connect'.
