I have the same exact modem and it should *NOT* need a driver. It is controller based, and it should work like an external modem, even thought it is PCI. I had mine working under Suse 8.1 and Red Hat 7.0, but have not figured out how to get it working under debian "woody". I just tried those other distro before I was enlightened. I will be interested to follow this thread also. I but the modem in a windows box and got the port value, but every serial port I try I get "modem is busy". I can see the modem under KDE -> control center -> information - > PCI. It's at IRQ3 and I/O port b800.
