Have a look at www.linmodems.org, you may be luckey (offical rockwell /connexant support is due at the end of the year, aparantly). Mandrake have a list of supported hardware at: www.linux-mandrake.com/en/hardware.php3 And similar for other distros. But if its not listed doesn't mean its not supported. A search on google will probably give you an answer. |
