Red Hat A month ago we published the world's exclusive review of Red Hat 8.0, Download Edition. In the meatime Red Hat, Inc. sent us a box of their newest product, Red Hat Professional. While the OS is pretty much the same as in the download edition and we have already made an extensive article on it, a few additional goodies await the customer in the box and we review them.

RH8 - PCI modem problems?
by Peter on Sat 26th Oct 2002 06:07 UTC

I am very new to Linux and have RH-8 Personal on order. In the meantime, I have tried both RH-7.3 (from the disks in the "Dummies ..." book and Mandrake 9 from disks in a local (Australian) PC magazine.
Both distributions worked fine (Mandrake looks good) but both also had the same problem in not being able to recognise my PCI modem.
Several questions:
1. Is this fixed in RD-8?
2. If not, how do you fix it; Not being able to connect to the Web seems a fundamental flaw! My Win-98 has been able to do it since new!
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Regards,
Peter
