Since a serial modem doesn't require any drivers, there's
nothing to detect on boot.  If you're using KPPP to connect,
choose the Device tab under setup.  The modem device should
be /dev/ttyS0 for COM1, /dev/ttyS1 for COM2.  Then go to the
Modem tab and click the Query Modem button to make sure it's
working.  Then you'll need to enter the phone number to dial
under Accounts.  All the other defaults will probably be OK.
