Hello, forum.
First of all, thanks a lot for all of your hard work!

I have a problem - in Linux (ALTLinux 3.0, kernel 2.6.18) I can't connect to GPRS via cable with my Himalaya. In Windows, there is no problems with same connection (actually, I'm posting this via GPRS).

I turn on WModem in Himalaya.

I enter the following commands in the commandline:
# modprobe usbserial
# modprobe ipaq vendor=0x0BB4 product=0x00cf

I start KPPP, then add new modem (/dev/ttyUSB0) and connection.
Initialization string: AT+cgdcont=1,"IP","Internet",""
Number: *99#

There are 3 leds in WModem (connection, input, output), and noone flashes when i start to connect.

The modem is being initialized, then "Modem is ready", then "Dialing *99#...".
That's all, there's no any further activity.

Thank you.
Dmitrii.
