hi all ,
i am runnning a copy of RED HAT 7 , now the problem is that modem is
winmodem and i could magnage to get someinfo on a HOWTO which came with the
CD which i have attached . now plz anyone could visit the site listed in
section 5.5 of the attachment and send me the appropriate driver as
attachment ( i do not have a www access   :(  also tell me how to install
