I went to the Modular Tech. website and there's a statement that a MMX CPU
is essential.  That's a pretty big tip off that this modem is ALSO a
winmodem.  There are USB winmodems.

It says nowhere that this modem will not work in Linux but it does say
minimum PC specs are a Intel 266 MMX or non intel 300MMX and 32 megs of ram.
Statements like these point pretty for sure at it being a winmodem.

Some are getting winmodems to work depending on the make.

Here's the link to Modular:

Good luck.

I recommend an external standard serial modem.  The port nobody uses
anyway...

I have a ZOOM 56K external that Mandrake detects just fine.
