To all that were helping me configure my
modem and needed more information:
Here is the complete output of "plog" (Fixhate is
the computer's name):

Here is the complete output of "setserial -a

kernel or one my friend compiled. I think he compiled it though because it
took about half an hour. If he forgot to select ppp, how do I get it and
load it now?
Here is the relevent part of /etc/isapnp.conf with
what I believe to be the correct BASE (0x02f8) uncommented. (It's the
second clump down):

I ran "ln -s /dev/ttyS1 /dev/modem" to make a link to my
modem. I was told to run isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf at system startup, but I
get the following (when I uncomment the BASE 0x02f8):
Board 1 has Identity d7 ff ff ff ff 03 00 73
16: ESS0003 Serial No -1 [checksum d7]
Board 2 has Identity 3f 00 00 01 00 19 0c a3 30: LEC0c19 Serial No 256 [checksum 3f] /etc/isapnp.conf:325--Fatal-resource conflict allocating 8 bytes of IO at 2F8 /etc/isapnp.conf:325--Fatal-Error occurred executing request '<IMPLICIT>'-further
action aborted
When I run isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf with the 0x0100 BASE uncommented I
get:
Board 1 has Identity d7 ff ff ff ff 03 00 73
16: ESS0003 Serial No -1 [checksum d7]
Board 2 has Identity 3f 00 00 01 00 19 0c a3 30: LEC0c19 Serial No 256 [checksum 3f] LEC0c19/256[0]{LT 56k
Modem }: Port 0x100; - - - Enabled
OK
Since the modem seems like it will work on Port 0x100, I
change the port from 0x02f8 to 0x100 using setserial.
Here is the output of 'setserial -a /dev/ttyS1' before I
change the base address:
/dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ:
3
Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0 closing_wait: 3000, closing_wait2: infinte Flags: spd_normal skip_test session_lockout Here is the output of 'setserial -a /dev/ttyS1' after I
change the base address to 0x02f8:
/dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x0100, IRQ:
3
Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0 closing_wait: 3000, closing_wait2: infinte Flags: spd_normal skip_test session_lockout When I initially run "pon" after I boot up I
get:
/usr/sbin/pppd: This system lacks kernel support for
PPP. This could be because the PPP kernel module is not loaded, or because
the kernel is not configured for PPP. See the README.linux file in the
ppp-2.3.7 distribution.
But then I type "modprobe ppp" and when I type
"pon" again the above information does not appear.
Nevertheless, I suppose it is possible the kernel is
not configured for PPP since Debian was put on my box at my UA dorms where we
have ethernet and that is what my friend probably configured it for.
Thankyou in advance for any help. Sorry this was so long.
