That's a bone of contention with me, modems that only half work. I have an internal modem that only works with Windows. I didn't know that when I bought my PC and really I didn't care. Now I do, more fool me for buying a Dell 3 years ago. Seeing a PC with the "Designed for Windows" sticker on it is like the health warning on cigarettes, people read it but don't pay any attention to it. It's a warning poeple, not a certificate saying it's good.
Fuck it, I will just buy an external modem that will work with Linux AND Windows. That's what's meant by being in control.
