[ale] Winmodem

[Sunil Patel]

I have a winmodem that I am trying to configure.  I have noted down the
com port and IRQ it is uses from windows98.  I then used "setserial
/dev/ttyS3 port 0xfff2 irq 10" to set IRQ and PORT.  Then when I run
statserial /dev/ttyS3 command I get the output as follow:

Device: /dev/ttyS3

Signal  Pin  Pin  Direction  Status  Full
Name    (25) (9)  (computer)         Name
-----   ---  ---  ---------  ------  -----
FG       1    -      -           -   Frame Ground
TxD      2    3      out         -   Transmit Data
RxD      3    2      in          -   Receive  Data
RTS      4    7      out         1   Request To Send
CTS      5    8      in          1   Clear To Send
DSR      6    6      in          1   Data Set Ready
GND      7    5      -           -   Signal Ground
DCD      8    1      in          1   Data Carrier Detect
DTR     20    4      out         1   Data Terminal Ready
RI      22    9      in          1   Ring Indicator

However, when I use kpp to dial out.  It complains about not being able
to find that device.  I tried using ppp scripts and the problem is
same.  Should I try any other thing to make it work or does this mean
that this winmodem will never work with Linux.  Your help will be
appreciated.
