FC4: Finding modem
I upgrated my home computer up Fedora Core 4 and I was surprised when I tried to connect to Internet – my modem was not found (yeah, I still have dial-up connection but for me it’s enough). After two hours Google searching I found a way how configure the modem. I run a Linux utility
wvdialconf
and it found the modem on
ttyS14
. Then I just created a symlink:
ln -s /dev/ttyS14 /dev/modem
Now the modem works correctly! Strange, It seems Fedora Core 4 was released crude! I spent some time to resolve problems with FC4 on my work computer. Now I need to do the same things on my home computer. Perhaps, it’s a good idea to change Linux distributive

Last sentense gives hope that one day your eyes will open and you will realise that rpm is evil!
It’s not evil! People who care of distributive should be more accurate.
