I had a pnp modem and soundcard work with linux by doing the following: I booted the devices into windows and set their irq's etc. When the pnp bios I use for the linux servers boots up, it initializes the cards and you just simply can tell linux what irq, com port, etc your devices would need to use. This worked for me on soundblaster 16 pnp back before we had the linuxpnp drivers, this was also a slackware install *cough* :) But....your can't open /dev/modem is a totally common error for a first-run minicom session. Follow my recommendations on changing the settings on option A in the serial port setup in minicom. Make sure you save the changes as .dfl when your on your way out after changing that option. >From that point on your won't have to run minicom as root with the -s switch.
