Hello ppl, Please forgive me but I dont want to subscribe to MDK for one or two questions. I have installed a usb modem and now after each boot you have to run #slmodemd --country=SA /dev/lsusb0 to activate /dev/ttySL0 which it links to /dev/lsusb0 and that is then linked to /dev/modem Who knows why they did it this way.Anyway. Problem is if I create a file called modem.sh with the command in it where to I place this file so it starts automatically when the PC starts, and it need root access to run? Please any help would be appreciated here! Thanks -- Chadley - Linux Rocks Welcome to my world. ****************************************************************** This mail is free for distribution.
