I disagree. I have a Lucent winmodem on two machines and I've gotten it to
work on both. Granted, it's a special case, because they've released a
half-open source driver (it can be recompiled for a different kernel version,
but uses a propreitary library) but hey, it works great for me. And there's
even an installation script that makes a deb package!
limodem.org, i believe... marvin stodolsky's website for the lucent driver
specifically.
