This PCMCIA modem is reported in Rob Clark's tables
http://xmodem.org/modems/pcmcia_list.html
as working directly under Linux with no other driver than the standard
serial driver included in any Linux distribution.
This means that when you plug it in , wvdialconf will in principle
immediately recognize it.
If it does not, the PCMCIA-Howto (use Google to find it) will explain to
you how to verify that the card is identified by Linux but not yet
associated with the cs serial driver. The same HOWTO says how the
association can be created.

For "non-tranparent" PCMCIA bridges, scanModem would not detect a
PCMCIA card modem.
But if it is a controller chip modem, there may a successful
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial
of for non Ubuntu related Distros
$ su - root
# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial
Also under a Microsoft, please run the Modem Diagnostics and send us
the output and driver information. There are a few different types of
Linux competent PCMCIA cards, requiring diverse drivers

Nahum,
May I ask if you have carefully verified that your modem cannot work
by using the scanModem utility as described in
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/#scanModem ?
Yes, I did and it and my modem does not work with Linux.
I found a PCMCIA Modem Zonet ZFM5600CF that according to technical
description works with Linux
How may I know if this modem will work when I use it with a Toshiba
Satellite A135-S4427 with Linux Ubuntu 7.34 kernel 2.6.20-16 generic ?
Thank you very much for your help
