  Hello 
  
  When I got my system, it came with a free AOpen
 PCI
  Winmodem FM56-PM. Before I go and buy a new Linux
  compatible modem, I want to make sure that this
 modem
  won't work with linux. Does any one have any
  experience in running this modem under linux. See
  modem specs and link below:
  
  Model: FM56-PM 
  Solution: Conexant single chip 
  Controllerless V.90 
  Modem/Fax (Kbps) : 56K / 14.4K 
  V.90: YES 
  ASVD: NO 
  Caller lD/TAM: YES / YES 
  PnP: YES 
  Bus: PCI 2.1

I went there, and I also downloaded and read their 127 page manual (xpdf 
works well).  NOWHERE was there mentioned the FCC registration, which meant I 
still had to parse 

http://www.idir.net/~gromitkc/20010531a.html

Manually.  This did not improve my attitude toward Silly WinModems, not even 
one little bit.

Your modem does appear to be listed with this FCC ID

FELTAI-33947-M5-E

And the listing is in bright RED.  There is a Conexant driver, and it does 
work with some conexant winModems, but this isn't, apparently one of them.  
If you feel like investing a great deal of time, you might get it to work, 
but it is definitely cheaper to go get a modem that is listed on the same 
page with a GREEN bar on the left.
