Internal hardware modems I have used with linux:

isa:    aopen itu/2.  Works great and it's cheap, $40 or so.  I'm using
        it now.

pci:    USR (3com) 5610 (retail) or 2976 & 2977 (oem) modems all work
        fine.  The 5610 comes with some extra software, and one of the
        oem models doesn't come with voice but I can't remember which
        one.  The 5610 probably goes for about twice the price of the
        aopen, and the oem models about $20 less.  A good alternative if
        you don't have isa slots on your motherboard.

As Mike notes above, any external serial modem ought to work fine.  Of
the three kinds I'd buy the cheapest solution that will work with your
computer.
