Hi,
    I have recently installed RedHat Linux 4.0 and I am having problems.
The first problem is with my modem.  I am using an Euroviva 33.6bps modem
which is internal on com port 1.  Now, when i try to run minicom, it says
that it can`t find /dev/modem.  After investigation that driver doesn`t
exist.  I went to check if I could change the driver and I can.  But I don`t
know what to change it to.  I got this version of a magizine disk "Personal
computer world" of May `97.  I have had it since that issue but have only
recently decided to install it.
    But I have another problem.  This problem is with X-Windows.  I have
configured the monitor using XConfiurator and X86Setup (I think that`s what
it`s called).  But, when I run X, I get a monitor output split into five,
all doing the same thing.  I can`t get rid of this.  I want if to look
noraml.  I want to show off to all those Microsoft addicts (I used to be
one).  Please help.

                    Kevin Cunningham, Belfast.
