Very Computer

I am trying to set up a PCI modem, although I don't know it's make or
anything, since it was just some unbranded thing bundled with a PC. On a
different machine, with Windows 98, windows already had the drivers for it
and had set it up to COM3. Once in my linux machine, it had (unsurprisingly)
lost its configuration, and the PC's BIOS did not seem to know what to do
with it. The following entry, which seems to be the modem in question
appears in /proc/pci :

  Bus  0, device  13, function  0:
    Serial controller: Unknown vendor Unknown device (rev 1).
      Vendor id=127a. Device id=1005.
      Medium devsel.  Fast back-to-back capable.  IRQ 3.  Master Capable.
Latency=64.
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xfedf0000.

I don't really understand how to set up plug n play devices in linux or
anything, and no drivers were released for the modem. I just want to get it
to use one of the serial ports so I can dial out on it.

Can anyone help me?

Take care,

Borislav

Then don't don't tell my Linux box that.  My PnP cards might stop wroking.  ;-)
From my understanding PnP support in Linux is very recent.
I'm using 2.0.35 at the moment.
