Since you're using your modem with commo, that suggests to me that it
is a hardware modem, and not a winmodem. If this is in fact the case,
then having the model number would help. If you don't know that piece
of info, and this is a pci modem, have a look at /proc/pci. If the
model number is 5610, then there are at least 2 previous threads on
this
list describing how to get that particular modem working under
GNU/Linux.  If you can't find them, I'll walk you through getting it
working. Come to think of it, since a good number of people seem to be
using that modem, I should find the time to sit down, and write up a
HOWTO on how to get it running.
