This is an LT (Lucent, Luna or Apollo) Winmodem. I used this driver
ltmodem-8.31a10 from here:
<http://www.physcip.uni-stuttgart.de/heby/ltmodem/>
I'm running 2.6.8, but this driver (initially) appears to work.
Anyway, my problem was, this is an ISA modem, non-PNP, therefore
pnpdump nor lspci were of any help. After compiling the above modules,
I had to insert with these parameters (which my be different for you)

options lt_modem Forced=4,0x130,0x3E8,0

lt_serial and lt_modem both load. I fired up minicom and got an AT
response, BAM! (only took me a week :/ )


Great! Just to address your earlier question about the martian driver -
the website says it's for a *PCI* (Lucent/Agere) winmodem series (Mars
DSP164x, in particular);
thus, i'm assuming it's not for ISA modems then. I browsed the source
and found "include/config/isa.h" therein, but, most likely, that is not
an indication to the contrary. (?)

(Also, FWIW, it wasn't accurate on my part to characterize it as a
"branch" of the ltmodem development -- it drives a particular subset of
L/A chips).

thanks
