1995 chipset

insmod lt_modem.o - okay
insmod lt_serial.o ..... No such device.

Cannot insmod ppp either - two unresolved symbols, so not a hardware 
modem.

It is not a pnp problem (needs isapnp) or a device or resource busy (wrong 
modem).  See below.

I think this modem is too old to work with lt_serial.o.
Our 1997 (?) pci lucent modems that work at 28.8K in windows work at 56K 
with the linux drivers.

I will use a 33K hardware modem and recycle this one.

       driver


(for a previous version)

   Problems:

     * 'ltmodem: init_module: device or resource busy':
          + You have no lt modem or compliant installed
          + If you have a ISA modem, it is not configured by isapnp
          + If  you  have  a PCI modem, the PCI support in the kernel was
            not configured

Another driver:
