Just in case users are wondering.....
I went and bought a brand new :
Creative labs
Modem Blaster V.90 External
DE5625
56k kbps/Data/Fax/Voice Modem
today...
I set it up in windows first (have dual-boot two HDs)
then I re-booted to Mandrake-Linux 7.2
The OS seen it...on boot...(saw lights flashing)
all I had to do then...was change the
"init string", in kppp setup...and wahlah !
using it now to send this post...
I love it...it connects at faster speeds then the Viking external.
Haven't tested the voice portion as yet...not sure how in linux...
Just thought someone might want to buy this modem, and would appreciate
the info first.
