RE: flexfax: Motorola ModemSurfer Internal issue...

["Alderman, Sean" <SAlderman@freitrater.com>]

No...it's not a winmodem...it actually is just plug and play.  They used to
have an external model which was plug and play as well.  In Windows, I don't
need any drivers, I can make it a standard modem on ComX (where ever it's
detected) and it works great.  My original thought was that isapnp might not
work right with it, but researching that yesterday got me no where

I tried looking at the Motorola site for more information on this modem
but couldn't find it.  I suspect you may have a WinModem which won't work
with Linux at this time.
