A question to all our IT gurus...
Has anyone got Knoppix Ver3.3 (Linux which can be run from a CD) to run with a winmodem (Smart Link 56K Modem to be precise). I've read many a post about how Linux tends to be picky when running with software modems but looking at the Smart Link website their blurb reckons all their modem products are Linux compatible. Other than not picking up the modem on my laptop Knoppix runs a treat, a definite must in case of PC/Windows emergency.
I've also seen Linux Defender, another Linux OS that's based on Knoppix, anyone had experience of this?
