It has an Intel/Ambient 5631 chipset. Hmmm.....
>From http://developer.intel.com/design/modems/products/md563x.htm
Overview
The Intel® MD563X-HaM V.90 chipset is a leap forward in technology,
performance, and cost savings. This Host Accelerated Modem (HaM) solution
combines and optimizes the best features from software and hardware modems.
It delivers superior performance and is cost competitive with software
modems.
The MD563X-HaM uses the host computer's CPU to replace the modem's
controller, and it does so with minimal degradation in CPU performance.
Since today's CPUs are well equipped....yadda....yadda
Sorry, it looks like a winmodem. Check out
www.linmodems.org. They may
have a driver if you've got your heart set on this one.
