towershooter Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Hello, I am running and Dell 2400 with Debian Linux on it. I need to add a phone/fax modem on it. Anyone know of modems that will work with Debian? Thanks Kelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavaeolus Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 external modems should work without problems, internal modems on PCI-Cards might be a problem, since they are mostly controllerless modems, which need a driver to work and these drivers are mostly only available for windows, these PCI-modems are basically the same chipsets as the so-called winmodems in notebboks. an external modem connected to your serial port will likely produce no problems, you just need to tell debian to which serial port it is connected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
