There's a driver at http://www.physcip.uni-stuttgart.de/heby/ltmodem/
It's worked quite well for me.. (with T21) The only real trouble with it
is that it's largely binary only :(

Another caveat with T2x'es is that there are two kinds of them: for the
seemingly more common variant the ltmodem driver works, for the other
MiniPCI modem no driver exists.
