i want to dial phone number of my ISP help line for some help. what should i use so that i could make a call in puppy linux using my usb 3g modem?

The blunt answer is "no". Puppy's dialup support is only for "data" connections to wireless and wireline ISP providers. In pupdial, the phone/access number is the "#99*" -type code you use to make a data connection. An alternate way to connect is with "pgprs" or frisbee's "GPRS" option. Pupdial was originally for analog PCI and USB modems but was extended to handle 3G.

After further thought: Puppy has PSIP and downloadable packages for skype. Although I have used neither, I understand that skype, for a price, can let you connect to regular phone numbers outside of the skype world. I doubt that PSIP can do that -- I think it communicates only with other PSIP users. There probably are other linux-based packages out there that I am unaware of.
