No possibility for modem on serial port, because there is no serial port
emulation at this time.
For a pci modem (as yours ?), I don't know.
AOL's connection 's kit is precisely the reason why I didn't choose AOL
as a provider : they just have to give a non proprietary connection kit
and browser , after all !
And maybe I would use it under Linux or MacOS. But they don't...
I've heard of some Linux non official port of their kit, but I can't
remember where (on the web or a magazine ?)

There is a port of AOL to linux on www.techpages.com but it's for x86 machines ::ugh:: I'm stuck with AOL becuase it's easy enough for my parents to use, and I'm still living at home. Do you know of any isps that linux can use? such as altavista or excite?
