ISA modem support

Hi, I have a 28.8 Modem that quite expectedly is not being recognized
automatically. It is not a win modem, but I don’t know what the chipset is.
I could find out when I get home. Is there a line similar to this one posted
for an ISA sound card that I would use if I knew the ioport, irq, dma, dma1,
etc.?

io-audio -dsb ioport=0x220,irq=5,dma=1,dma1=5 &

Also, where do I put this line to make it boot all the time? In the .boot
file? - which reminds me, I have several in that dir, and I don’t have any
idea which one is actually booting. Anyway to tell?

gosh darn these are some newbie questions, thanks for your help and your
patience.

Hi, Usually ISA modem represents in system just like a com port. So you have to run devc-ser8250
with right options then you’ll able to use your modem just like as external one. You need know the
irq No. and base port address to start the driver. The best place to put your commands is the some
script which is launched by sistem on startup, not to boot image. The better case if your modem has
jumpers to configure it, read modem’s manual to set the port number. The worst case if it is only
software configurable modem, you need to have the configuration tool for modem.
Cheers.
