Try this as root:

/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS1 auto_irq skip_test autoconfig  (also try
ttyS0)

start kppp, go to setup and modem, then use the modem query function to
see if it will find the modem
if it does not find the modem, disable the modem in the bios and get
yourself a 3Com 3CCM156 pcmcia modem. Its one of the best that I have
tried. Works great in windows and linux. With the standard pcmcia linux
package you can be braindead and the modem will still work for
you.(Trevor notwithstanding).

PS if you get a modem busy when you query the modem, do not worry. use
setserial to change the irq to another unused interrupt and then set it
back to 3 which is standard issue for ttyS1 or 4 for ttyS0
