The first thing you need to realize it that FreeBSD is not LINUX or any flavor or 'distro' of LINUX. FreeBSD is a complete operating system that had its birthing in the BSD (Berkley) UNIX in the wee early days of UNIX. Check on the http://www.freebsd.org/ web site for more information. Second, FreeBSD is a complete OS and as such can talk to modems and nic cards, and most other peripherals. The information is on the FreeBSD web site. FreeBSD is a superior free UNIX. It takes a little extra time to learn, but is worth the effort. Enjoy learning and using FreeBSD. jerry ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

There used to be another list way back when that I can't find now. http://www.linux-drivers.org/ We used to all be glued to the modem compatibility lists and alot of us found safe haven by getting (the now cheap) external modems. Here are some examples. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Category/category_slc.asp?CatId=564 (Excuse me for being long winded on this, I did tech support for Linuxcare for close to 5 years.) -- Bill Schoolcraft | http://wiliweld.com If your life was full of nothing but sunshine, you would just be a desert. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The information you provided him with is something he will naturally pick up at a time where he is able to understand. Just saying something like `yes' would suffice. In his case to make him check out FreeBSD, which is the best we can currently hope for.

People whose English is not native are still well able to understand concepts, including differences between computer OSen for those who are working on computers.

I googled a bit, but have to ask, since this has to be new and against conventional wisdom ... how exactly does FreeBSD support this modem? It appears to be Conexant based, not Lucent.

RE: Kids from Indonesia (sorry, the 1st was wrong!)
Your modem is an winmodem. It's specially manufactured for windows operating systems. It does not work on FreeBSD. There is a port which works for some winmodems on FreeBSD called ltmdm. ltmdm may or may not work for your modem. Giving it a try is the only way to find out. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Kevin Kinsey Sent: Wednesday, May 17, 2006 3:31 PM To: Daniel A.
