How does it do when you boot to DOS? You can check with most versions of Windoze to find out how the IRQs are assigned. RedHat has a list of IRQs, and I suppose Mandrake would do likewise. You have both an IRQ and a range of memory for the interrupt that should be common to modem, Linux, and Windoze. At least it has jumpers.
