Toshiba Modem
 

Alright, I along with a friend (who knows what he's doing on a computer) successfully installed Mandrake 9.0 on my Toshiba Satellite, and now dual booting linux and xp. Has anyone found a fix for the software modem thats on the Toshiba, or will I have to forever use xp to connect. I can connect to my LAN at work with no problems, but at home, alas I only have dial up, and aol for that matter.

:confused:

Perhaps something in this will be of help.
