I don't know anything about PCMCIA but want to buy a modem for a laptop on which I run FreeBSD 1.1. Do PCMCIA modems need drivers to work or do they operation on the same int and use the same io addresses as the com ports? Really I am asking if a PCMCIA modem will work with BSD. -- Jim Wylder wylder@austin.ibm.com Phone: (512)838-8789
