I got a response that it was possible, but the person
needed more information about my syste, I posted it,
but as yet I haven't received a response.
To recap: whenever Linux tried to detect my intenal
modem (it came with the computer, so i don't know what
kind it is, and when I went to the Compaq website to
get more specs there wasn't too much) I got an error
that the modem wasn't found. Additionally, after I
ignored the message and tried to continue the
configuration, the only nationalities were European
(like Germany and Austria), with nothing listed for
the U.S.
Can anyone HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP!

If this computer is a dual-boot system running Windows,
what does the device manager in Windows list the modem as?
What type of modem is listed on the Compaq website? It is possible
that the modem may be a winmodem and require special drivers
to function. See here for why winmodems are frowned upon.

Good luck.
