It certainly looks like its not being found at all. Do you have more than one 
ISA slot? You could try moving it. Also, are you sure the legacy ISA slots 
are available and not turned off in BIOS?

Last thought. Take it back to wherever you got it from, and swap it out for a 
true hardware based model. Not a "Winmodem". I've found that "Win" stuff 
basically sucks vacuum hard. Usually takes up more system resources anyways.

HTHs.

PS You could also try an external modem hooked to a serial port. That usually 
is a no brainer setup for Linux.
