Pretty much all cable modems supplied today have an Ethernet jack, since Windows users won't settle for USB-style speeds and responsiveness either...
And once it supports Ethernet, there are no compatibility issues: you either get a PPTP dial-up-style access (with the regular Linux pptp client) or you get an address allocated via DHCP (with the regular ICS DHCP client -- in Fedora Core, that'll get you online with *no setup at all*).
As to ISPs, the word "Linux" doesn't scare Netvision nor Actcom. Then again, I was positively impressed by Bezeqint recently, when I complained about high ping times and they asked me to mail them a traceroute (instead of blaming it on me repeatedly until I hang up out of frustration).
