modem driver for linux

[remyvrs]

i know there are very few linux drivers existing for modems but could anybody give a hint of how to find driver for my trust modem ,. ,. or to find someone who can develop such a driver

You may want to try using ndiswrapper if you can't find a supported module. It allows you to "use" a Windows driver to allow a component to function. I have used it on FC3 with some integrated NIC.

Good luck,
Mark

I guess it will be much cheaper to buy an external modem, than to pay a developper to write a driver for a winmodem.

http://start.at/modem

is a page which lists drivers for cripplemodems.

With linux, there is always the "best" option of using a hardware based modem and simply using linux' internal serial device support.

Any time you start throwing modem drivers into the mix, you are likely to be disappointed.
