[Bulk] Re:re: Hardware modem

[Paul DiRezze]

lspci -v yields the following

00:0e.0 Communication Controller: Conexant: Unknown device 10b6 (rev 89)
         Subsystem: AOPEN Inc.: Unknown device 00c2
         Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop-

         Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 10

D3hot+, D3cold+)
            Status: D0  PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-

I double-checked this but since I transcribed this by hand there may the 
odd typo.

What does this information tell me?
