Some months ago I bought a modem as a spare for the wife. At the time she ran W98 only. Now I've got her interested in Linux and she runs Knoppix as well as W2000.
I think the original modem is starting to give trouble, so if possible I'd like to replace it with the spare, but I'm not clear exactly what I have and the wealth of literature seems to confuse me. The modem is an external one made by (?for) Microcomputer Research UK Ltd, uses a serial port and has a model No 1456 EVS. The main chip inside the case shows:- Conextant Smart SCM/56 CX 88168-11 E73197.1 0035 TAIWAN MRI does not support Linux and staff are unable to say if it will work with Koppix. They were not disinterested, just unable to help. Is anyone conversant with this modem and able to help. (I can't find out what 'SCM' means - there's a lot of talk of 'HCF' and 'HSF' but I don't understand exactly what is involved there). Grateful for any assistance or pointers.
