        This begs the obvious question - what has changed since the last
install? Have you looked to see if the system sees your hardware (read
dmesg, look at /var/log/messages, examined the stuff in /proc, etc. etc.)

        Have you tried to talk to the modem with a com tool like minicom?

        Need a bit more to go on than "it's not working"...... even then,
I'm an RS/6000 and IA (x86) kinda guy.
