Hi Follow Linux users,

Just would like to know, as I am a bit of a newb to Linux; How on earth can I install an internal modem into Linux? (Software wise)

Specs for my Linux Machine:

400mhz Celeron Processor
96MB Ram
4GB Harddrive

Here is a good starting page
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO-2.html
I've only set up one modem under Linux and it was
a "win" modem which are notoriously difficult, but if you
start reading that page and visit the links they provide
you can get it up and running.
