It still could be a winmodem, you know.  What determines that is whether
it uses a chipset that omits some required functions, relying on those
to be furnished by "engine" software, instead.

Supra have definitely been known to use winmodem chipsets, such as
Conexant/Rockwell HCF and HSF, Agere/Lucent LT, and others.  But they
also use traditional hardware-modem chipsets.

If it were mine, I'd check its casing to see if it could be safely
opened to examine the circuit board and jot down whatever's written on
the largest chip, and then compare that against the information on
http://www.idir.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html

That would not solve the larger issue of getting Linux talking to 
your modem fruitfully, but would at least address the winmodem question.
