option 1) http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/answers.php?action=viewarticle&artid=279

Try following the instructions there

option 2) get a distro other than SuSE... hell, I'd take mandrake over SuSE *twitches*

[dmenchia]

I was tweeking the idea and it is a simple fix
Have had same problem USR5610B uses DOS COM 4 which is suppose to be tty5 but that is not true in most case
I read that it is set up the same way /dev/ttyS14 at 0xd000 (irq = 5) is a 16550A
1st - download and install lnux_3commdm-1.0-1.i386.rpm
if already installed good
2nd - need to log on as su using shell konsole to make a symbolic link
3rd - "su"
password
rm /dev/modem
ln -s /dev/ttyS14 /dev/modem
4th - set up modem with YAST2 it may already be listed if not set up manually it seems to work
