Hi,

1. Login as root and Please be sure you have the isapnptools installed. You
can type "type pnpdump" in an xterm or in the console. If the shell answers
you "pnpdump is XXXXX", that is ok. Else, you will have to install the
isapnptools from the CD of your distribution or via Internet.
2. Run "pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf". It will looking for Plug And Play
devices on your system (ISA WinModem are PnP devices) and store it in the
file /etc/ispnp.conf.
3. Now edit the file with "emacs /etc/isapnp.conf" of "kedit
/etc/isapnp.conf", "gedit /etc/isapnp.conf", ... and specify the IO base
address 1, 2, and the IRQ of your modem .
Ex:

........................
Card xx {LT WinModem}
.........................
(IO ADDRESS 1 9x00 )           # delete the word "VERIFY"
..........................
(IO ADDRESS 2 1x99 )           #idem
..........................
(IRQ 25)
...........................
ACT Y                                     # uncomment this line by removing
the '#' at the top of the line
...........................

4. Configure your PnP Devices by running "isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf"
5. Download the latest version of LTmodem from http://www.close-u-net.com/
(I have got the version 0.9.8 )
6. Un-tar and un-gzip it by "tar -zxf ltmodem-a.b.c.tar.gz"
7. "cd" to the LTModem directory by "cd ltmodem-a.b.c"
8. Run the "pnpmodem" script included with the LTmodem package ("chown root
pnpmodem.sh ; chmod u+x+s pnpmodem.sh ; ./pnpmodem.sh  ")
9. Note or print the values returned by the script
10. Change the name of the Makefile ("mv Makefile Makefile.PCI ; mv
Makefile.ISA Makefile")
11. Now edit the file "config.h" by "emacs config.h", "kedit config.h", etc.
12. Change the value of LT_ISAPNP to 1
13. Set the correct values for MODEM_IRQ, IO_BASE1 and IO_BASE2
14. Compile and install the package by "make ; make install"
15. Use ltmodem as described in the README file ("emacs README", "kedit
README", etc. )

But do not hope to be able to connect to Internet with your LTmodem in Linux
because this driver can only transmit VOICE, not DATA.

Bye.
