Most cellphone modems aren't in the hardware list because they change
more often than we can document them...

Try building a kernel with the following devices:

device		ucom
device		umodem
device		umct
device		uark
device		ubsa
device		ubser
device		uftdi
device		uplcom
device		uvisor
device		uvscom

Maybe we should start putting them in GENERIC, because I've answered
this question a dozen times in the past few months.
