Home Highway was installed yesterday. It's good! Forgive the long message and newbie questions following - I have tried to figure this out and have looked around the net and the system and *have* got it working after a fashion - using it now in fact - but its a terrible lash-up at the moment. So I'd really appreciate any advice and comments on what follows, including where else to look for answers since I don't really know where to go next. 1. OK, I am using Mandrake 8.0 and it hasn't completely recognised my internal isdn card (Asuscom ISDNink 128). I see something about insmod hisax failing during boot. I looked at dmesg but did not see these messages - should I be looking in /var somewhere? 2. But if I give this command (found in the documentation) then I can use it: modprobe hisax type=35 protocol=2 id=hisax Presumably I should be able to use this information to edit a config file somewhere to have it happen during boot? No idea where to find it though - there seem to be an awful lot of start-up files and I clearly have not found the correct one yet. 3. Finally, what app is recommended to dial an ISDN call in KDE (or on the command line)? I was using kppp for the modem but is does not see ippp0 - should it be able to find this or does it only recogniise the serial ports? At the moment I am having to use something called the Mandrake Control Centre to go to the network settings to find a place to dial out on the isdn. It is very long-winded, clunky and obviously just not the right way to do it. Also, MCC requires root password so I am not sure if I am dialing out with root privs or with my user privs. I know its a mandrake thing but any informed guesses? TIA Syd
