Drivers developed for Linux by Linuxant are only available commercially now (A free beer version is available but it limits you to 14kbps). And even though I was able to use this modem, my machine was slow and lot of CPU was being used. I recommend against using an internal modem that is based on the HSF/HCF Conexant (Rockwell) chipset.
