There are two kinds of modems:
Hardware modem = works with Linux
Software modem, aka "WinModem", works only with Windows


Bad news, boobie: the "WinModem" is HARDWARE, too!

Actually..a WinModem is considered to be a Software modem. And its
rare that they will work with much of anything besides Windows.

That being said..there are a number of attempts by some linux
programmers to be able to utilize them.

Google Linux and winmodem. I supplied some links last night.
