I installed fedora core 5 on my computer with a US Robotics 56KB PCI card fax/modem. Linux does not detect any modems. I did not find any linux drivers on the us robotics website. Are there any places where you can download linux drivers for this modem?
Thanks,

First, update to Fedora 7 or 8, if possible. Fedora Core 5 is *off* the supported list.

Second, USR has done a lot of sins with their modems. Please specify the model, and try to find out if it's a Winmodem. Then install "HylaFAX", prefereably the recent one at sourceforge.net, and run "faxsetup" and "faxaddmodem" and let us know what you see.
