Try Diamond PCI Pro Hardware V90 Internal Modem. Used one till recently. 
worked fine under Linux.

Scan ( http://www.scan.co.uk/products/index.htm )are currently selling 
them at GBP22.65. Doesn't say what stock is. If I could find it (moved 
house recently, cant find the damn thing anywhere) you would be welcome 
to it. Got the driver disc still if any use.
