Patrick, Thought for a moment that your Modem was a Serial Modem, that would be supported through the native serial driver. It might turn out to be a "WinModem" for which I would recommend downloading scanModem script by Marvin Stodlsky http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanModem.gz copy it to your linux partition/desktop run $ gunzip scanModem.gz $ chmod +x scanModem $ su - passwd: change to the directory where scanModem file is at and run # ./scanModem it will create a folder named Modem/ with some information. Send me the file ModemData.txt to me (offlist prefered, since some folks on the list might be offended) and I can help out determine which driver you may use to get online.
