I have a win modem built in laptop, so I cannot use it > FreeBSD. Do you think it's possible to do anything about it? Depends on the WinModem. Mine actually has a PCTel codec or whatever the backend is called, and there is an open source Linux driver for that. I've been meaning to try and port it but my time is taken up elsewhere. I don't think that the AC '97 modem interface is all that is required for a WinModem.

I'd first like to hear from people with PCI or ICH clue to ascertain that the SMBus device is there. I still suspect it's not wired in our laptops. --Stijn --=20 "What if everything you see is more than what you see -- the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to anoth= er world?
