I think they are getting close to a driver for the winmodem,

Subject: Thinkpad A30p and -current. status and issues


 Hi,
 because I behaved well last year christmas brought a new A30p
 in replacement for my former Toshiba Tecra 8000 :-)
 First impression: Nice pice of plastic and silicon.
 Migrating from the Tecra to the A30p was a few hours for FreeBSD
 (exclusivly for dump/restore from old to new disk.)
 Editing rc.conf, fstab and XF86Config took a few minutes.
 Migrating NT2K took one day for reinstalling all applications
 and rebooting dozend of times
 BTW: The A30p doesnt have a Floppy by default anymore and no
 installation CD's for reinstallation. All is preinstalled in
 a obscure Win98 1Gig Partition at the end of the harddisk which
 gets called if one presses F11 during startup. But it seems a
 MBR feature which goes away if one installs an alternative
 bootblock.

 Working Features:
  - The display X11 @ 1600x1200 via VESA driver
(the RADEON chip is not directly supported in XFree 4.1.0)
  - build-in fxp0
  - modular DVD/CDR/CDRW comby (is a Toshiba drive)
  - USB / USB-mouse
  - PS/2
  - UDMA33/66/100 via ATA(66/100) / ATAPI (33)
  - OLDCARD via the legacy shims

 Not working Features:
  - agp driver (unknown too new chipset)
  - SMB/IIC-bus (  )
  - Sound (Intel ICH3)
  - NEWCARD
  - OLDCARD pcic_pci attachment
  - Lucent Softmodem (no driver)
  - Firewire (  )
  - ACPI (I get some Error messages during startup and I'm not
sure up to which extend ACPI works)

 The OLDCARD/NEWCARD/Sound issues seems all to be related
 to bus mapping problems of register and io memory.
 See attached files dmesg2.txt and pciconf.txt.

 Does anyone know how to interpret and resolve the mapping issues?
 Which bridge-chip is responsible for the agp access?

 Bye!

Try the winmodem driver from the ports collection e.g. comms/ltmdm and
see if it works.
