Hi -- I know there is blinux-list@redhat.org -- or maybe it's .net??? can't
remember -- just send email to blinux-list-request@redhat.whatever and in
the subject put subscribe -- i think that's the way it works. I haven't
subscribed to that yet as all I wanted was to hear about speakup, as I am
already familiar with much of linux.
Good luck.

Subject: usb modems
Hey guys, first of all are there any general Linux lists? I'm not sure
where else to ask this but don't know if it's really on topic here.
Anyway, that will teach me not to believe Windows about my computer. It
reported only one serial port, but checking the manufacturer
specifications for my motherboard shows I have two. So I did what I
should have done to start with and pulled the computer out to check the
back. There is one port left for the m20 which leaves only one question.
Are there any good USB modems that will work in Linux without
proprietary drivers? I would prefer one I could get for around $60 or
less.
I found one very cheap but as far as I could tell it needed a special
driver that isn't in the kernel. I don't want something like that where
somewhere down the road it won't be supported by new kernels. That's
what brought me to this point to begin with.
Thanks.
Justin
