Yes, it seems to be kind of a common problem -- I hope it will be
fixed for the final release of potato. After loading your card,
execute (as root):
IRQ=$(setserial /dev/$DEVICE | sed -e 's/^.*IRQ: //')
setserial /dev/$DEVICE irq 0
setserial /dev/$DEVICE irq $IRQ
If that works (i.e., your modem is detected -- use minicom), I suggest
you modify /etc/pcmcia/serial accordingly or (easier) update to
pcmcia-cs 3.1.14-1 (in woody).
Good luck,
