I hate to say it, but a friend of mine spent two years wrestling with Fedora trying to get several PCI modems to work, and ended up giving up on Linux because of it.

I know that you asked for a PCI modem, but would ISA work? I've had luck with the little bit of ISA Zoom modems that I've worked with.

Wasn't me, Tim, somebody else on the list.

ISA's work better because they don't usually require drivers, they appear as a serial port on the ISA bus, but a lot of motherboards don't have ISA slots any more.
