Jim,
How did you get it working under 2.6? Hmm... Yes, I am sure there
are MANY people out there using Linux with these modems... (but, of course,
new tech is always an issue to resolve). ;) Thanks again for your input.

The SiS winmodem isn't necessarily a full-stop. I do have mine (SiS 650)
going under the 2.4 kernel. I had limited success under 2.6 - it would
connect to some ISPs, but not to Clear. I have yet to try 2.6 with ALSA
enabled.
Can someone check whether the slmodem (2.9.10) is available in the
Ubuntu repositories? My quick web-trawl makes it appear that it isn't.
If not, can Ubuntu use a Debian package? Otherwise, it can be built from
the source.
It's still a good idea to use an external or PCMCIA modem first, though.
