This isn't necessarily an error which would stop the modem from working...
Are you setting up the serial port with setserial??  I would recommend
using the mwaved startup script that comes with the source to start your
modem...

The easiest way to test your modem is to use minicom and try to
dial out via 'ATDT###-####' where ###-#### is the number you wish to dial
to...  If that works, you should be able to set up ppp...
