I don't think that either system detects the internal modem (there is no
/dev/modem).

There's a linux driver for your 5610b modem there. I've used it
successfully
in the past but I have a memory of having to 'fool' around with it a
little.
I had no trouble getting this [U.S.Robitics] modem to work with Fedora Core
5.
Sorry I couldn't be more specific, but it's been a long time since I had
to
worry about a modem. But I've had your exact model running under earlier
versions of Fedora.
Good luck on getting that laptop modem to work, however. Try linmodem.org
for
ideas
