Hi Robert,
I've got a combined 3com net/modem card, where the dongle for the net is broken. No problem with the modem side though.
Free to a good home.

First, are you certain that the existing internal modem is not functional under Linux?Halo,
Does anybody know where I can get a USB-modem that works with SuSE 9.2
64-bit? I have only a laptop without serial ports and a modem that doesn't
work with linux.
What sort of modem is it?
I will try Dick Smith. I will ask them if I can try the modem and return it if it doesn't work. I have one PCMCIA II slot. But I don't know if USB or PCMCIA works better. I would prefer USB because the position of the slot is not very good for a modem.You can d/l the file and run it to discover the details:- http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/#scanmodem
If your 'puter has a slot, you might well get on better using a PCMCIA modem
Dick Smith have suitable ones - XH1145 is one of several.
They also have a small external USB modem - XH1147 Goodness only knows if it works under linux.
