No. If you reread my question you will see that I replaced my winmodem with a hardware modem precisely for that reason. Kudzu seemed to detect the new modem fine and configure it. I still get the error number 8 when I try to activate it, however. Is this discussed somewhere in the documentation? Is there some reference that explains the meaning of the Error Number 8 ??

It works in windows because their drivers include support for capabilities usually handled by the modem. If you have the hardware model numbers you can check at http://linmodems.org to see if there is a driver you can use for your modem. -- Richard E Miles Federal Way WA.
