Hi everybody,

I have a problem with my internal modem. I don't know exactly what model
it is, I know that it is a 56K. 
It is not a win modem since I was able to dial and login using minicom,
though it was terrible slow for a 56k.

I tried to use netcfg using the same settings as for an external modem I
also have and that works just fine (just is slower). So, it dials I can
hear it connecting with the server, but after that the connection
invariable dies. 

When I tried to use Kppp, I get the busy modem message every time I
tried to switch to the internal one (ttyS2 in my case), so I don't even
get to dial.

Here I insert the last part of my messages file:
