Don't know about the sound card, but are you certain the modem is NOT
a WinModem. If it's in a PCI slot, chances are good it is a WinModem,
but it may not be. If it is a WinModem, it won't work with Linux -
buy an external serial modem and you can be certain it's not a
WinModem. If it's a non WinModem, it may just be an IRQ conflict and
you can try changing the IRQ for the modem using setserial.
cat /proc/interrupts
will list the the IRQ's in use.
setserial /dev/modem irq n
will change the it to irq n (where n is an available irq), assuming
/dev/modem is a link to the corresponding device for the modem.
Do you know what com port in DOS/Windows your modem is?
com 1 is /dev/ttyS0
com 2 is /dev/ttyS1
etc.
Hope this helps.
Dave
