There is a Linux package called "pnptools" for dealing with pnp hardware, but you will have to do some twiddling - it's not automatic. Hopefully it won't be too long and the kernel will be designed to deal with pnp without user setup. ALso make sure it's not a Winmodem; if so get another modem. If you get an external modem, you won't have to deal with pnp. Try sending mail as plain ASCII, and you might get better results with answers.

I am trying to connect to the Internet using Suse Linux 5.1 and I can't get by Boca Research 33,600 ACF Internal modem detected by Linux (i.e the PnP card isn't recognized). What program(s) do I use to get the card recognized at startup? I can't figure out the isapnptools. Any suggestions?
