Here's the tail of /var/log/messages... Like I said in the original
post, it doesn't offer much in the way of low level problems. It
just seems that the modem isn't returning an "OK", so it times out.
I have tried a bunch of different init strings, including your old
pals, E1 and Q0.

On a possibly related note, setserial -a /dev/ttyS1 returns:

/dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
        Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
        closing_wait: 3000, closing_wait2: infinte       [sic]
        Flags: spd_normal skip_test


Yeech. Tough one...
