Ajnos,

From http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
get the for your kernel 2.6.17-10-generic 	the package
hsfmodem_7.60.00.02full_k2.6.17_10_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
Under Linux unpack
$ unzip hsf*.zip

Start the install with:
$ sudo hsf*.deb
and follow the output instructions.

If the install succeeds, run:
$ sudo wvdialconf  /etc/wvdial.conf
which should find the modem.

Edit in your personal information with:
$ sudo gedit  /etc/wvdial.conf
To a form like:

[Dialer Defaults]
Baud = 115200
Modem = /dev/ttySHF0
Init1 = ATZ
init2 =  AT+GCI=7e
# 7e  is the  NEW_ZEALAND  country code
Init3 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = 3015560020
ISDN = 0
Username = LoginName
Password = LoginPassword

Then try a dialout with wvdial.

Please report back.

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.
