Thank you very much for your help.
A friend of mine will buy a PCMCIA Modem Zonet ZFM5600CF in
California USA and will bring it to Mexico City on January 10th 2008.
I will write again to let you know how the modem works in the Toshiba
Satellite A135-S4427 with Linux Ubuntu 7.34
Best wishes for 2008
Nahum.

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
