Well, usual answer is www.linmodems.org (if he wants to sell, he should do the legwork... ;) ) Last time I investigated this question, there were no internal hardmodems telepermitted in New Zealand. This would be the only decent way to get an internal modem. It has little to do with Linux if Grant went and investigated whether this has changed. Internal ISA modems are almost always hardmodems, but no use any more on current mobos. Internal modems are therefore soft, and the only two which would work are the ones with either a lucent or a connexant chipset (use lspci to find out). Every Linux distro should recognise these out of the box and install them properly, and Joe Average wouldn't notice it's a softmodem under Linux. (If it doesn't work, it's either dodgy hardware or dodgy distro.)
