    Cable modem

    Ok. I finally got Mandrake 9.1 installed. I can't configure my modem for some damn reason. I'm using a USB external modem. It's not reconizing my modem. I'm short on documentation while I'm running linux (downloaded the .isos and not enough memory for documentation) and I'm not getting to far. I go to the configure screen. Select cable modem. Then I don't understand what it means by select driver. What I thought was my driver is a Thomson DCM235 which isn't on there. But the weird thing is, is that when I search for hardware it finds the modem. I'm just lost. Until I get my modem running all I can do is sit there and play that bomber game


    **Edit. I left some info out...

    the external modem is a RCA Thomson DCM 235R modem. I'm using it via USB. I also have a dialup connection that I don't use because I can't figure out how to set it up
