Hi:
I have a generic HSF modem and supposedly these modems can now be made to
work under Linux.  (Also Linux doesn't even notice the port at 02f8 and
gives the UART unknown message - note:  I have checked the plug and play
option in the bios and that's not the problem).  I've tried reading the
"many" pages on these issues on the net but am left a bit unsure about what
to do.  Anybody out there who can give a helping hand.  Much appreciated!
