okay...
read up a little at redhat.. (didn't help my problem any though).. my situation is I have a winmodem and I"m trying to use rp3 to connect to my PPP.. and Linux doesn't like my modem because it requires drivers to connect out (the drivers only exist in windows though)... so I"m guessing that i'll have to get a new modem... right?

gnokiid(8) gnokii gnokiid(8)
NAME
gnokiid - create a virtual modem for old Nokia mobile phones
SYNOPSIS
gnokiid
gnokiid [--help|--version|--debug]
DESCRIPTION
gnokiid
is a tool from the gnokii tool suite used to create a virtual modem device with a Nokia portable telephone. The virtual modem device is
usually accessed via a symbolic link called /dev/gnokii (created automatically by mgnokiidev(8)). Please note that you don't need a virtual
modem when you have real modem accepting AT Hayes commands (most of the modern phones). gnokiid was written for the phones that supported
data transfer but didn't expose AT layer (namely Nokia 6110, 6130, 6150, 5110, 5130).
After gnokiid has created the virtual modem, it can be accessed like any other Hayes-compatible modem by such programs as the terminal pro-
gram minicom(1) or the PPP daemon pppd(8) to make standard data connections to remote computers.
The full range of portable telephone functions (SMS messaging, phone book, operator logos, etc.) are accessed using the command-line pro-
gram gnokii(1) or the graphical interface program xgnokii(1x).
gnokii is a Linux/Unix tool suite and (eventually) modem/fax driver for Nokia mobile phones, released under the GPL.
gnokii supports most phones from the 3810/8110 and 5110/6110 series, details including bugs specific to each series appear in the files
Docs/README-3810 and Docs/README-6110 respectively.
OPTIONS
If called without any options, gnokiid will set up a virtual modem device using the settings in gnokii(1) config file (if it exists). Oth-
erwise,
--help print out a short usage message
--version
print out version, copyright, phone, and serial device info
--debug
uses STDIN/STDOUT for a virtual modem
DIAGNOSTICS
Various error messages are printed to STDERR.
BUGS
