Has anybody managed to get USB working under RH 6 or later. I will be
getting an ASDL USB modem which I wish to use with Linux.

Stephen,
Yes that is true. External modem will work on almost any machine. So one that is for
Windows ( not a winmodem) will also work for Linux. In fact it will work for a Mac if

I'll deal with it in the commonly used generic, non-brand-specific
terminology.)
Many internal modems are "hardware" modems (they have firmware).
Many internal modems are "software" modems (there is no firmware).
