8 This will give you at least one line corresponding to your modem. One like
9 this (not exactly the same):
10
11 00:07.4 0780: 1106:3057 (rev 40)
12
13
14 1106:3057 is in this case my modem (actually it is not. I don't have a modem)
15 It is the PCI-ID for the device.

17 You can do two things. First, check if you already have the module installed:
18
19 for i in $(modprobe -l); do modinfo $i | grep 3057 && echo $i; done
20 (3057 is the last part of the PCIID above. Replace with your own)
21
22
23 In my sistem this gives:
24
25 zeddmore nbensa # for i in $(modprobe -l); do modinfo $i | grep 3057 && echo
26 $i; done
27 alias: pci:v00001106d00003057sv*sd*bc*sc*i*
28 /lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r3/kernel/drivers/hwmon/via686a.ko
29 alias: pci:v00001106d00003057sv*sd*bc*sc*i*
30 /lib/modules/2.6.18-gentoo-r3/kernel/drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-viapro.ko
31
32
33 Modules via686a.ko and i2c-viapro.ko provide support for my "modem"
34
35
36 The second this you can do with the PCIID is: search google.
37
38 Some softmodem are very easy to setup. Not sure about yours.
