Yes. The external serial modem will hook up to one of the existing serial ports on the computer. There should already be com ports and interrupts set aside for this under Linux, so all you have to do is tell whatever application you want that com1 is a modem. That has no effect on com3, com4 or any other com port that has been created via software drivers for a winmodem. -- Bryan Phinney
