Such as my 56k modem isa card, ect. Which linux or unix free os is best for installing drivers automatically, wheter they are called drivers or not. I've heard of so many os'es based on linux. Specially on EBAY. PROTOSOFT, UBISO, DEBIAR, FREEBSD, and the list goes on and on. I just need an os that i install and the drivers are up and running. Specially the modem cards. Windows XP detects all this automatically. Also is there a website where u can get all the drivers for linux? Such as www.driverguide.com ? Other websites for linux drivers? Or a website to compare linux oses. I just wanna know which linux os installs the pci, isa cards automatically like my sound, video, modem, ect. I bought LINSPIRE and it installed everything except modem, tried over 3 modems and NOTHING. Anyhow I hope I can get help from u knowledgeable guys. Juan. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
