Modem on the iBook2

[Colin Charles <byte@bytebot.net>]

Hi all,

Got an iBook2 800Mhz machine here, running Debian, with 2.4.22-benh very
comfortably. Everything works (thanks to the good folk on IRC!).

I only have two questions, and would appreciate if I could be pointed to
some resource/help.

1. How do I get my software modem working? Most of the time this is not
needed, but I'll be away from home in a few weeks and while travelling
on the road, getting the software modem working will be cool. wvdialconf
doesn't pick it up :( neither does kppp.

2. How do I drive the external display? I've got an ATI Radeon Mobility
7500. I don't want it to be split screen or anything, I just need the
exact laptop screen output displayed on an external screen (for
presentations, et al).

I hope that rebooting the machine and making OpenFirmware tricks isn't
the only way to go. I'm thinking the X server itself can drive it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
