<DIV>Dear all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>While considering all the suggestions on the external modem. I'm still preoccupied to try some others sggested by Mr Lynch and Mr Carr:</DIV>
<DIV><BR>1. Trying the urpmi results:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>via terminal (konsole):</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>error of accessing local packages. That's when I tried to install the hsflinmodem which is in cd rom.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2.Trying to copy the hsflinmodem driver from the cd mandrake.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>- I renamed it hsflinmodem.rpm (in the cd) - still unsuccessful;</DIV>
<DIV>- with the complete name: hsflinmodem....2.41.Inxbeta...rpm (in cd) and type cd /home/kadim still failed.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3. Going to: <A href="http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/">http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/</A><BR>At step three, found some command to be typed in the konsole such as ...ftp ....etc. The point here is whether I should be connected to the internet first before putting commands. But that's my main problem.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>4. Everybody please accept my apology for keep asking....</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best regards,</DIV>
<DIV>Kadim</DIV><p><hr SIZE=1>
