I don't think that supports the USR5638.
I remember the modems those drivers support.
Multitech has a PCIe modem that should work with linux, but it is over $200.
Too expensive for me.
Of course an external real serial modem is often more likely to work with linux. An external USB modem might work.
Right -- the good old RS-232 serial port. A fallback solution if I can't find a PCIe modem that works.
