I have received a couple of replies :~>>Subject: Re: Installing Linux w/PCI DI5630 Gee, from specifications listed here: http://www.modemblaster.com/product/di5630.html I would never have guessed it is a winmodem. It sounds like an ordinary HAYES modem to me. It even has fax, voice mocem cap. etc. Since, http://www.idir.net/~gromitkc lists is as winmodem - it must be. I suppose someone has comunication problems. But then again, when a guy from support tells you that PCI - card is a PnP card, what can you expect? (hint: ever seen a non-PnP PCI card?) cu Denis -- ----------------------------------------------------- Dr. Denis Havlik <http://www.ap.univie.ac.at/users/havlik> Mandrakesoft ||| e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Quality Assurance (@ @) (private: [EMAIL PROTECTED]) -------------------oOO--(_)--OOo---------------------
