They told me there is no alternative to this internal modem.. and that his internal slot was designed ONLY for !@$!@# Lucent Winmodem!! A warning for those of you considering running FreeBSD on a Dell laptop - don't! Unless they have changed and now offer more alternatives to Lucent WinModems or any other kind of Winmodems, which is very likely considering this laptop was bought in November 1998, don't bother buying one if yer just gonna run FreeBSD on it. And just FYI - it's running FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE. CD-installed. -- Will Andrews <andrews@TECHNOLOGIST.COM> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
