PLEASE people .. I assume a Motorola VOICESURFER is not a win modem,
because it is ISA and I can use it in DOS
As far as I'm concerned, WinModems and ALL HCF modems rate down there along
with Rockwell's original RPI modem. Leave the processing power in the MODEM.
Don't expect the CPU to handle the tasks. WinModems don't even work all that
well in Windows. Why should we expect them to work at all in

ain't as big as 2.0 to 2.2 so it will not take as long. I expect it by end
of fall, maybe November at latest.
dont worry too much, i agree with you completely... this kind of attitude more than
any other aspect is the linux community's greatest strength.

Is it possible to move a couple jumpers and take it out of PNP mode?

you might want to hang on to it for a while and just get a cheap one for
now.
kernel 2.4 is going to have winmodem support.
Yes, but how long is it going to take to get kernel 2.4? I know Linus is
calling for it by the end of the year
What about a Motorola Voice Surfer.. Its an ISA modem and I am 99% sure its
hardware.. but I cant get Linux to use it right.
It will detect there is SOMETHING on Comm3 but it wont use it right.
HELP???

Not at this time. I do have suggestion: Everyone with a Winmodem should send
polite snail-mail or e-mail to the modem chipset manufacturer asking for them
to provide a linux driver or at least release the specs so a driver can be
developed. Lucent Rockwell are two of the largest controller-less
