Well I have W98se and have recently installed redhat linux on my computer. (via partitioned harddrive) I am running into LOTS of hardware incompatibilities! 1) My modem I have a 56k PCI Lite WinModem. Yes, i know it is a winmodem and its intended for use with windows. I ahve heard that there is a program that will make it work with linux. I found a website (www.linmodem.com(i think)) and downloaded their software but couldnt seem to make it work. 2) My sound card Its a soundblaster awe 64 gold. (also Win hardware) i found a program (isa pnp tools) but cant make it work. (you must think im stupid by now dont you ;) 3)processor on the boxed set of redhat it states that it is incompatible w/ AMD K6-2 400. It seems to work fine on my computer but just a little slow. Is that the only problem with it? thanks. any help is much appreciated.
