Re: [newbie] modems for Linux
I personally recommed a 3COM/USR 56K V.Everything internal modem. It works in Win95, WinNT4, and Linux. I have never had a problem and 3COM is a very reputable company. The throughput on the modem is great. Check out http://www.pricewatch.com or http://www.shopper.com for the best prices.

Virtually any of them should work with linux. I'll recommend USRobotics 56k v.90 faxmodem. If you must get an internal, be certain it is an ISA. Make certain that the box doesn't indicate that Win 9x is a requirement.

My ZOOM 2919 dualmode works fine (contrary to Bynari's claim that it wasn't a supported device), but the plug n play feature I think was only for windoze. Just know which IRQ and COM port you need to use, set the jumpers (they're labled), put it in an empty slot, plug in your phone lines, open kppp, under the modem tab, set it for the corresponding port (COM1=ttys0, 2=1, etc.), enter your dial-up settings, click ok, click connect, and all should be well. __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
