I don't have a winmodem with the Lucent chipset (mine uses PCTel), but even after the drivers are installed, you still have to configure the irq and stuff. Usually, if this is incorrect, you will get a device/busy error message. The easiest way to configure the modem (after the drivers are installed) is to open up a terminal or command shell, is an su command to change to root and run modemconf. Select the option to "detect" and it should do the rest. In case the drivers that came with mandrake are faulty, you can go to linmodems.com and get the latest ones (and directions).
