I met this problem too - the driver is trying to find the modem on 
resources where the modem is not. If I remember it correctly, the driver 
expects the modem on something like IRQ 10 and 4 and enabled. It should 
be the default setting when you do a reset to defaults in BIOS setup - 
so when you do the reset to defaults in BIOS, disable quick boot feature 
and then a modprobe mwave, it should load.

If you wish to use a non-default settings, the driver can be told to use 
different settings via module parameters - in the config files for the 
mwavem package there is a variable where you can set them up.

As a supplement to the documentation you may choose to dive in the source.

I assume you have the stock kernel (so the mwavem package and the 
in-kernel module are compatible).

Sincerely yours

Vaclav
