Have you looked at the dmesg output to see what port gets assigned to
your modem? I have a U.S. Robotics 2976 pci hardware modem that shows
up under /dev/ttyS1 under linux 2.6.15.1, and a portion of my dmesg
output looks like:

Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing
enabled
serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:10.0 (0100 -> 0101)
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 0000:00:10.0
PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with 0000:01:00.0
0000:00:10.0: ttyS1 at I/O 0x1010 (irq = 11) is a 16550A

In the above, ttyS0 is a physical serial port, while ttyS1 is the
modem.
