[driverloader] HSF modem: Cannot open /dev/modem: No such device or address

[Dmytro Bablinyuk]

I have problems of using latest hsf modem driver
hsfmodem_6.03.00lnxt04061800full_i386.deb (Debian)

My kernel is 2.6.6-2.
I have successfuly installed the driver but if I try wvdial or minicom 
it tells
Cannot open /dev/modem: No such device or address.

Could anybody please help me with this - it was working with 2.6.6-1 but 
now something changed in a system and it stopped working.
I appreciate any help in advance.
