I have a controller-based modem Hard Drake reports as "USR Sportster
Voice 56k faq" modem, ISA, that works fine under 7.2 and 7.2.1, but
under 8.0, I get "cannot find a modem" from kppp, using /dev/modem and
/dev/ttyS1.  If I try to adjust the settings in the hardware config
section, it gives me an error stating that modprobe could not find the
isapnp module.  I tried running isapnp manually, but that only results
in "Sorry, modem is busy." and the same error comes through under
harddrake.  My modem is my only link to the internet, so this is a
"fatal error" for me.  I *really really* like what I have seen of 8.0
otherwise, and I very much want to use it.  How do I fix this?

My computer is a K7VIA mobo with an AMD Athlon K7-550, 256 megs of RAM,
and a 15 BG hard disk.

If I left any required info out, please ask me for it.  Thanks in
advance!
