I'm trying to set up Debian on a friend's computer, and so far have been unable to get the modem to work. It is an ISA card, so I ran pnpdump > isapnp.conf. Towards the bottom of the file there was a section for an 'LT Win Modem'. After uncommenting the lines for an IO of 2F8 and IRQ3 I ran isapnp and still the modem doesn't work.
Now I know that winmodems are generally a hopeless case, but is this still true if pnpdump detects it? Any other ideas on how to configure it? TIA, James
