You will be out of luck with that particular modem. It is a 'winmodem'
style and will not work with Linux. You may want to consider swapping
it out with an ISA model. My solution was to hook up an external modem
to COM1 (/dev/ttys0). Left my PCI internal in the computer. I use it
for Win98 and the external for Linux. At the price of external 56K
modems I kind of like my solution over others but you will need to
decide which is best for you.
