My guess is it is a winopdem and if so it will not work with Linux.

Subject: Compaq laptop modem


I was recently gifted a Compaq Presario 1810 laptop.  I have purged it 
of the viruslike OS and installed Linux Mandrake 8.1 and all runs great 
except for the stupid modem.  I tried using lspci and less /proc/pci to 
find some info on the device but it does not appear several other 
devices appear and I can account for all of them but no modem.  Is it 
possible that this modem is so wiggle-jacked that the kernel doesn't 
even find it as a pci device?  (kernel 2.4.17)

thanks in advance

Joseph
