Mandrake Modem Problem


I recently purchased a US Robotics modem from Amazon because many of the comments claimed that it worked great under Linux. Sadly, it isn't working so great for me. Mandrake isn't even noticing it. I've surfed the web a bit looking for some linux drivers but have yet to come up with a way to correct the problem yet. Any advice would be appreciated. I'm running Mandrake 10.0.

US Robotics
SN: 23RBB62CP316 / PN: 3CP2977-OEM / Model: 0726

Feel free to talk to me like a total newbie, because I am, but everything else is working great so far. If I can get this modem working, I'll be on my way!

Found this which refers (maybe) to your modem: http://www.math.sunysb.edu/~comech/tools/PCImodems.html

Oops, just noticed something about it: /proc/pci may not exist since it's been replaced in the newer Linux kernels. Use lspci -v instead to get the IRQ and i/O address for your modem.
