First Hi to everyone on this forum. I have a problem with setting my internet connection from ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft. I can not find proper modem driver for my dial up connection. I was hoping that someone will help me determine which driver i need and direct me to some instructions how to install and setup connection. I scaned system with scan modem tool and got this information: Only plain text email is forwarded by the DISCUSS@linmodems.org List Server. Do use the following as the email Subject Line: SomeName, YourCountry Ubuntu 6.10 kernel 2.6.17-10-generic This will alert cogent experts, and distinguish cases in the Archives. YourCountry will enable Country Code guidance. Occassionally responses are blocked by an Internet Provider mail filters. So in a day, also check the Archived responses at http://www.linmodems.org .
