Acer 502DX Driver needed!!!

I need a driver for my old Acer lappy. Can someone help me out? I cant find one... and i figured it would be in an old Red Hat distro, which i am downloading now. If its not in there... im stuck. I would prefer to get one that will work with ubuntu... but it doesnt have the driver so the res is huge. Thanks!

As far as I can tell, everything is supported in modem Linux distributions.

All except the Lucent 56K WinModem, which can be resolved with a file from www.linmodems.org. You should not have an issue.

You may consider purchasing Suse or Mandrake or any other recent linux OS since the purchased versions come with proprietary drivers- like the ones for your winmodem. Good luck.
