Howto find associated com port of a pci modem under debian 2.6.8


Hey everyone,

I have a question i'm hoping someone can answer for me. I have a AVM fcdsl internal pci adsl modem. I installed the driver and at boot time the module loads fine. in order to setup a ppp connection i need to know what com port the device is using but i don't know how to do that. I've tried tty0 through 5 but no luck. Google told me to try "lspci -vv" wich I did but i can't make heads or tails out of its output. Can anyone here either explain to me what the output listed below means and/or how to find the com port the device is using?

sincerely, Chryso.


Code:
 
lspci -vv

This excerpt from the Modem HOWTO might help. The ttys should be ttyS0 to ttyS3 instead of tty0 to tty3.
