Scan modem

scanModem finds a suitable driver for a connected modem. scanModem is not in the Portage tree, so it has to be manually downloaded and extracted:
user $
gunzip scanModem.gz
user $
chmod +x scanModem
user $
./scanModem
It will create a folder Modem and the file scanout.something contains the wanted information. If a modem is detected, the driver is named next to Drivers, e.g. for a HSF modem:
FILE
./Modem/scanout.something
Driver=hsfmodem-drivers
