Hmm, the tack being taken by the people who have working code is to
treat the modem as a soundcard with phone line interface (they don't even try
to use the DSP). Their setup is completely userland - not even a kernel
module.
IMHO a nice direction to go would be to abstract the Lucent stuff from
the OS dependent stuff then put the former in a .o file with an API compile it
for FreeBSD (et alia) document the API and it should be easy enough to produce
a whole suite of apps/kernel drivers. Actually I would like to see the source
released but ...
