Thanks, I did what I should have done at the start, and read the instructions on the CD sleeve. I went ahead and ran it as a live CD, but I couldn't find the dialup connection or my modem. I imagine that like before, I need to do some more reading, but when I found KPPP, it said something about it already being bundled with other apps. Thinking that this might mean that it would automatically connect when I opened Firefox, I tried, but no go. I started looking for something like YaST, so that I could configure the modem, but I couldn't find that either. It doesn't seem to see my external modem.
