Since you've mentioned -current... I have a Xircom CardBus Ethernet 10/100+Modem56 card which works perfectly in -current (we've communicated about this before), but only the ethernet part, I've never managed to make modem to work. I searched the lists and got an impression that the modem part doesn't work in -current, could you please comment on that?
