Thanks. Yeah, I'd seen that but didn't have a good way of determining whether or not it was a "voice modem", so tried my luck with the drivers anyway. I suspect it is such a beast and won't work (even under windows NT apparently) So, what internal modems do play nice with linux? I heard wild rumours that "SwannSmart" modems use Lucent chipsets, and they're relatively cheap. Are they the way to go? I know the Lucent chipset powered modem in my laptop works, do Lucent have linux drivers for all their chipsets? Has anyone here actually got a winmodem to work?
