(Get the code!)
Puppy linux has a really great wizard for detecting modems - winmodems in particular.
http://
Specifically Puppy Unleashed is a reference to the source and directions for building a complete system.
All the source etc is available so if you need ideas about getting these nasty things to work.
The 2 main problems people (eg me) have had are - winmodem chipset detection and port detection.
Using a Thinkpad R60 - winmodem on a pcmia card. Knoppix 3.7 & 3.9 would give me grief - why I don't know. Puppy 2.14 (latest release) and earlier were pretty good about using it.
Hope this helps
