I have been running a USR modem in a RedHat 8 machine. Granted, it did not
install properly (that is to say, LINUX never saw it as a modem), however,
by pointing it at the standard com device, I got the modem to work just fine.
In my case (and to make it easy for myself in cases of reference), I just
created a link "/dev/modem" to "/dev/ttyS2" (no quotes, btw).<br>
