Phil,
Get the hsfmodem files. The lines below tell you to
do that.
Primary PCI_id 14f1:2f30
Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem
Formal support for Conexant chipset modems are
available ONLY through
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers. Read Conexant.txt
for details.
and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance.
Driver speed is
limited to
14,400 until a key is purchased. There is NO
freeware alternative.
There are two support package types: hsfmodem and
hcflinmodem.
http://www.lorenzobettini.it/linux/LinuxSonyVaioVGN-S5VP_B
reports a
problem and solution in stalling a key, after testing
of the free low
speed download.
The hsfmodem package serves a great variety of
Conexant chipset
modems.
From
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
download
hsfmodem_VersionSpec_k2.6.17_10_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
with 2.6.17_10_generic
equivalent to
2.6.17-10-generic, your kernel version.
Under Linux unpack with:
$ unzip hsfmodem*.zip
Then install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb
Subsequently, the modem should be found with
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Edit in your personal information with:
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
and try dialing out with:
$ sudo wvdial.
See Testing.txt for details.
Read Conexant.txt
Regards,
Antonio
