(Win)modem under linux

Lucifer 2 · 2000-03-15 01:58:00

well it doesn't say its a winModem anywhere, but im beginning to think thats what it is. it came with a new Dell, and shows up under windows as "MPD3900V-W Modem". is this a winModem, and therefore impossible to use under linux? [This message has been edited by Lucifer (edited 15-03-2000).]

the best way to find out is to try and install the thing. Linux will inform you if its a winmodem
