Linux drivers needed!

Hi guys and girls

I have just a minor problem and I though I'd ask if any of you could help me.
I installed Red Hat Linux 9 on my Compaq evo n160 laptop, and I desperately need drivers for my Conexant HSFi modem!!

So if any of you know where to find them, or can suggest a site where to look for, I would be very grateful

It's a bit annoying that I can't access internet from Linux.. Damn you 56K!!

Me want a broadband too

wit_mht: Can't you install an standard 56K modem driver?

i think it's a software modem, and software modem don't work in linux, i had the same problem.

Don't know if it is solved already but i had this problem 2 years ago with another conexant modem.

try this page a guy has a problem with a modem under red hat also. and the guy who answers them is pretty funny to boot.

Software aka 'winmodem'. They don't work too well on any linux distros. Go to walmart and get a 20 dollar special v.90 modem. Any motorola or 3com will do. Seriously, either that or goto 'www.rpmfind.net' and search for an rpm. Once found put it on a cd or some shit and off you go. Other than that, there are NO drivers for linux. Just packages. Drivers are a windows thing. Linux > Windows by far.

lucent winmodem drivers work with it.
- with suse (9/6? - forgot) and knoppix (don't know for sure with red hat)

Thanks guys

I'll have to start trying these out!

If your still having problems go to a site called download.com,they have drivers for just about anything out there
