Red Hat 7.3 help ?!?

Tr lauderdale

I am currently running a dual boot system with WinXP and RH 7.3.

My Linux kernal version is: 2.4.18-3

My PC came with a WinModem (COM1) so I downloaded the Linmodem
driver: ltmodem-kv_2.4.18_3-8.22a3-1.i686.rpm

I booted up Linux | logged in as root | opened the command shell |
and typed: rpm -Uvh ltmodem-kv_2.4.18_3-8.22a3-1.i686.rpm

I will not even bother to paste in the typescript results but it said all was well. I opened up my 'Internet configuration wizard (Gnome)'
and attempted to activate the modem. It wont dial!?! I contacted my ISP and I have all my info correct.

I reopen the command shell and try to reinstall the modem driver.
It will tell me the device is already loaded?!?

Has anyone else had this problem? I had it up and running in the past with no problems. Any tips or help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Take it easy,
Dave Lauderdale
