Does the modem share any IRQ's with other devices?
Is it PnP?

Subject: [newbie] modem will not work
To all:
I know that you are gonna look at the subject and say "oh no....another
modem
problem" Well, I have read the docs, the man pages and searched various
sites
on the internet for help. Usually I can figure it out myself by doing
enough
reading (I am a newbie) but I must now be at your mercy. Here's the
situtation:
I myself am having no problems with my modem, I have cable access, but my
friend, who just installed Mandrake 7 ( I told him how great Mandrake is,
so now
we have another newbie among us)has a US Robotics 33.6 internal modem. It
is
NOT a winmodem. When he tries to query his modem through kppp he gets
"modem
busy". His modem is not listed in DrakConf hardware. I have told him to
read
all of the man pages and docs that he could find on his box. I have also
tried helping him (via phone support, but its like a blind leading a blind)
with no avail. Is there some kind of step-by-step that I could direct him
to,
so he could get his modem to work? All help would be greatly appreciated.
