i have upgraded my system from 9.0 to 9.1 and having a bit of trouble configuring the modem.The thing is , it seems that i have all the drivers loaded but the modem doesn't work(says modem doesn't respond).Could someone walk me through the modem testing using minicom (you may include screenshots) ?The following are things that i currently have :
modprobe lt_modem
Gives :
Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.22/ltmodem/lt_modem.o will taint the kernel: non-GPL license - UNKNOWN

This will conflict with support for the Lucent modem. Please
rm -f /dev/modem
and assign another symbolic link to ttyS1, such as:
ln -s ttyS1 /dev/modem2"
Then rerun: ./autoload
Aborting on this trial.
should i try to create a second link as it says ?
