Mandrake Linux 9.1 modem problems

I have a HP Pavilion ze5170 notebook, and just installed Mandrake Linux 9.1. It runs fine except i cant dial-up to the internet. It says it is a AC-Link m5457 by Acer Laboratories Inc, but it cant find a valid driver. Does anyone know where i can download the driver for it?

I would start here:
http://global.acer.com/

If thats stock hp hardware you might want to do a search.

Right under the menu in the search box, put the exact part number, click the radio for all of hp US and give it a shot.

Thanks Steven for the response. Somehow i stumbled upon a site that had the drivers:
