iBook DVD

[Greg Hamilton]

I haven't tried dialling out with the modem yet but if I run Minicom 
with /dev/modem symlinked to /dev/ttyS0 I seem to be talking to a modem.

I can enter basic Hayes commands and I get back the anticipated 
results, though I did initially have permissions problems. /dev/ttyS0 
is owned by root:uucp. It's group r/w so my slightly half arsed 
solution was to add myself to the uucp group and I was away.
