Hi,

the VIA HDA bus with PCI ID 1106:3288 is supported by the current version of the HSF driver (7.60.00.02). As far as I know, we have not tested this specific setup (Conexant modem on a VIA HDA bus) but it is likely to work well.

If not, the user should send a dump to support@xxxxxxxxxxxxx The dump can be generated with the 'hsfconfig --dumpdiag' command in a root shell.

Regards,

hasn't been encountered before.
Similar to other HDA Controllers, it may host a modem card.
As Jacques recommends, try to get us some more information from
diagnostics under Microsoft.

The failure of scanModem to elicit more data could be due to a
presence of a Conexant modem Subsystem.

  Is the hsfmodem package competent yet for a

ScanModem was not able to identify your modem.

Is it INTERNAL in the computer box? Or USB? Or EXTERNAL?
If internal, is it an ISA card?

Your ModemData.txt below says how to easily get informarion on your
modem if you have Windows on the same machine (replies to ATI commands
given in a Windows modem terminal (screen)).
