To confirm that your Stylistic has a modem installed check the label on the backside.
It should say something like "WITH V.90 MODEM".
To enable the device, you need to install the ltmodem package. The current version can be found via http://www.heby.de/ltmodem.
After unpacking the tarball and changing into its directory:
tar -xzf ltmodem-8.26a9.tar.gz
cd ltmodem-8.26a9/
you will find the script build_module which is going to guide you through the installation process.
It will compile some modules and upon execuction of the script ltinst2 your /etc/modules.conf file will be modified to load the modules automatically.
To make sure the modules are properly loaded run
lsmod
as root. This should report that the modules lt_serial and lt_modem are loaded.
If not check /var/log/messages for any errors when the modules are loaded/probed.
The dial-up connection itself can now be configured by using yast2 or any other tool.
Note: I need to call modprobe lt_serial in /etc/init.d/boot.local to avoid problems when I try to use the modem, but I could not figure out why...
