pci hardware modem not working
I just went out and bought a brand new, fully hardware PCI modem (for
$68!), USR 56K V.90 w/ Voice (2976/3298). Unfortunately, it does not seem
to get assigned a ttyS* port during the boot process. The Modem HOWTO
gives some tips for finding out the essential information, then says
without giving specific directions, to use that info with setserial to
assign a serial port to the hardware. However I am at a loss as to how to
actually do that. Here are the relevant results of what I have tried so
far. Any advice, or pointers to more detailed instructions?
In the BIOS, PnP OS is OFF.
Using pppconfig and setting the device to any of /dev/ttyS*, then pon,
gives "No dial tone" results in plog. Output of wvdialconf are at the
bottom of the info below.

Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?
