Does "dmesg" report any recent action when you've just inserted the card? You could try and find the port with setserial: for A in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 ; do setserial -a /dev/ttyS${A} done (if it says "UART: unknown" then it probably isn't really there.) The mapping to /dev/modem wouldn't normally happen, but you could probably make udev do that. What kernel / Debian versions are you running?
