When you had the modem in windows, do you know what "Com port" it used?
(A, B, C, D or maybe 1,2,3,4)
Is the modem an internal or external connected to a serial port?
If the modem is internal, is it PCI or ISA or something else?
If you still have windows installed, you can find out what resources
windows thought the modem was using. If you have this, find out what IO
ports (something like 0x03f8) and IRQ (like a number from 2-15.)
