Mark,
When I go Mandrakes home page and pull up the 'Supp. Hardware' link, this is all
I find under 'MODEM'
" Most modems and ISDN adaptors are supported. Most "Win-modems" are NOT
supported."
'Most' to me means many, but not all. I am comforted by a Manufacturer/Model Number
type of list, because invariably the first modem I pick won't be one of the many.
