i installed isapnptools and did pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf then edited the file and uncommented the first IO 0 line and also the first INT 0 line. i didn't find any DMA lines. here is my isapnp.conf file:

isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf gives my no errors and reports that the modem is functioning correctly. however, there is no /dev/ttS* only tty*. i guess i must be missing something? some assistance would be appreciated, as i am pretty cluless with modems. thanks.
