found.  I have configured using setserial to match the address/IRQ/UART that

I downloaded it using W95, but the tar app tells me its corrupt and quits on
me.  can I download .TAR files in win without suffering file corruption?

I think I have all the info I need for the ISP end of the link, but I can't
seem to get Linux to recognise the modem.  I have changed the isapnp.conf
file to match these settings (I think) but dmesg only shows 2 serial
devices.

isapnp finds the modem board.

AAAARGH!
