My recollection was that Lucent provides a binary driver for their winmodems, but because they don't release the source code, the module will only work with the same kernel it was compiled against. I have a laptop that came with a 2.2 kernel and the correct Lucent driver. As soon as I went to 2.4, the modem vanished. Check out www.linmodems.org (or something like that). It's a site devoted to getting winmodems to work under Linux. Chris -- Christopher S.
