Hello Apologies but I am very new to this and have spent the last week reading and re-reading, being pointed to one doc file or another internet site, all appearing to give me confilicting info. I am therefore, for the moment, giving up on trying to ascertain if my present internal WinModem will work on com4 on my machine, and am asking for a quick solution. Once online I can play with my old modem's possibilities or otherwise to my heart's content, but my priority is getting online in Linux. I would very much appreciate any advice on a PCI modem that will allow me to use my two physical comm ports for Braille and speech, and where I might obtain one in the UK. (I was advised by the Suse support staff to go down this road rather than looking for a USB modem, but again, if anyone has clear advice I would appreciate it). Thank you, very desperately hoping someone can help.
Hello!
Please let us know more about your internal modem!! Wich vendor, how old is it etc. Maybe we can find something out... But in most cases its very dificult / inposible to get a winmodem running on linuxboxes :-(.
Best regards, Schoepp
