Re: 56k baud modem (x2)

Hi Greg --
You asked:
> Is the 56kb USR upgrade compatible with linux?  I tired of 14.4. :)

Almost certainly.  I use a 56K ISDN 'pseudo-modem' all the time.  
Even though this box isn't internally the same as the real USR modem 
you're talking about, the software configuration under Linux would 
be exactly the same.

In other words, my 'pseudo-modem' just connects to the serial port on 
one side and to an ISDN phone line on the other side.  The Linux software 
has no idea what I've got connected to the serial port, I never made
any ISDN patch to the kernel, and use no ISDN utilities or devices.
All I did was to use setserial to make the serial port work at high
speed.

Hope that helps.
