(for serial > Interface). I use a US Robotics hardware modem on a PCI card. Well, I don't use it anymore - but I use to. The box it came in had a penguin on it and specified it worked with Linux. Anyway - if an internal modem says it requires Windows, good chance its a winmodem - sometimes they work in Linux, often they don't. External modems that connect to a real serial port almost always just work with Linux. -- Michael A. Peters http://mpeters.us/ Thank you very much. I'll go for a modem which connects to the serial port Thanks Mohan
