snd_intel8x0m        would be the appropriate driver if the modem wasALSA compatible.  But the absense of a modem diagnostic readout from:

Consequently  read the  Conexant.txt
From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.phpdownload the 	hsfmodem_7.60.00.01full_k2.6.17_50_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zipUnpack with$ unzip hsf*.zipInstall with:$ sudo dpkg -i hsf*.debIf the install completes it is a Conexant modem.
Report back presently.
