Subject: How to install Plug-n-play modem and set up for 56 Kb?

I puchased an ActionTec  model IS560LH internal  v.90 Modem.
Upon initial startup my bios says:

CARD-01 Lt Win Modem

( I have the PnP auto turned on in my Bios)

Upon examining my dmesg output  (included below)
its not clear that NetBSD 1.3.1  knows  the modem is present.

What is the process to get  NetBSD to use this modem?

Does anybody have a set of ppp scripts to get it to use 56kb?

I have search the FAQs and have failed to find pointers.

Thanks for your help.

Bill
