I tried it and have the same results as with the old driver. 
The modem waits ages to dial, then dials and gets connected to the
wrong number (the line I am testing is used normally by our fax, so
the line is fine).

I am using wvdial on Suse 8.1. this is what gets sent to the modem:
ATZ
ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2
ATX1DT"",32479752
(the number above is for my private provider, the T-Online number has
similar problems...)

The line I am testing on is direct through the PBX, so there is an
empty prefix. 

I have been using those dial strings on my xircom, so they should be
ok unless the modem is totally wierd.

cheers
