Try this one again


Running mandrake 9.1 and if I want to put in a new modem can I just shut down and swap it out with the present one or do I need to clean the system of it.The driver came as a rpm so is it just a case of removing the driver because the modem is a winmodem and isn't supported by the system so once driver is out its on vacation.

Not necessary but it's *wise" to do so. Uninstall the driver first. than take the modem out.
