After pon, I ran plog. My new Atlas 33.6 internal modem (I replaced my
U.S. Robotics
Sporter Winmodem so I could use Linux) runs very softly. I do not hear
it hang up.
Plog reported a termination. Part of the message, what seemed relevant,
reads as
follows: "LCP: timeout sending config.requests. Connection
terminated. Receive
serial lin is not 8bit clean. Problem: all had bit 7 set to 0." How
do I correct
this handshaking problem in Debian Linux?
