Brett, I'm not sure if there is a definitive answer as to whether or not
your modem will work under Linux, but I do know of two resources, one of
which will get you working.

The first is the Linmodem HOWTO at
http://walbran.org/sean/linux/linmodem-howto.html.  *If* your modem is
supported by Linux, then this page will help you to get it to work.

If you find that your modem won't work (and chances are pretty good that
it won't), then I would recommend that you get an external USB modem.
Mandrake will definitely support that, and there is some very brief
information at http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/x332.html.

Good luck!

Hey guys,  I just installed Linux Mandrake for the first time on my PC.
I have to admit I really like it very powerful and stable OS.  But one
thing that bothers me is that I can't get my modem to work.  I checked
out the site for compatibilty modems for Linux and mine falls under the
category WINMODEMS.  So if anybody has any advice on what I should do
lets hear it.  But if I really can't do anything to solve the promblem
then I would like to know what modem I could buy thatwould work with
Mandrake 9.0  Thanks Guys...  Brett Getz
