Hi Does anybody have any experience, can recommend a good PCMCIA Modem that is known to be compatible with Linux, so that I can get my Laptop Online and Finally Get rid of Win 2K ( We still keeps breaking ) Thanks Rick
Have you tried getting the laptop's own modem to work? Just because it doesn't show up during install as a linmodem, doesn't mean it won't work. (And the Windows name for the modem is no predictor either, use scanmodem from the http://www.linmodems.org site and see if you can get it to work. Many previously useless winmodems in laptops now even have a simple RPM download available - and can work first time. I tried to find a PCMCIA modem before finding linmodems and I failed to find one that wasn't just another controllerless software modem - just like the internal one. - -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.codehelp.co.uk http://www.dclug.org.uk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9+iF5iAEJSii8s+MRAhwEAJ4h7EIhCkTfK6pg9t1NhbO25i+vRgCeOTqh uG7c9oPOuEV0JhHRj6EtsWU= =CbLX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
