I have a Lifebook 735 and it contains a so called DSVD modem. PCI
thingie. According to the Linux FAQ of februari, there is no support for
that type of device in Linux, so I bet the challenge to write the driver
for it is yours.
Let the list know though if you find something.

Don't worry about that. If Windows can use it all at the same time, than
FreeBSD certainly can. An Windows is able to do it: Handling a USB
camera and a modem at the same time, that is.

That is the simple way to go.
