Hi,
I need help to configure my modem.
I am newcomer in Linux.
The Linux is Metasys desktpp and the faxmodem is V.92 56kbps PCI Modem -
Agere systems
Thank you!

USB modem not detected by lsusb
Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:
=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
=== Next deducing cogent software ===
A modem was not detected among the PCI devices:

with USB and bridge devices not displayed.
Please provide any independent information available on your modem.
If your modem is mounted on an ISA card, scanModem could not access it.
If an alternative boot into Microsoft windows can be done, do mouse
clicks on:
Start > Settings > Control Panel > Classical View (for Window XP) >
System
Hardware > Device Manager > Modems > Click on the + > Modem. Double click
to
expand the graphic. Manufacturer information may be displayed. For example,
CXT
stands for Conexant. Click the Diagnostics Tab. Record any hardware ID or
vendor
and device information.
Next do the Query Modem and record the ATI specifications displayed such as:
ATI3 - Agere SoftModem Version 2.1.22
ATI5 - 2.1.22, AMR Intel MB, AC97 ID:SIL REV:0x27
Try to identify the modem setup file, with name perhaps MODEM.INF.
If may contain chipset Vendor informaton.

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.0
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.18.1-6-default
Checking pppd properties:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root dialout 291796 2006-04-22 23:38 /usr/sbin/pppd
In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html
To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
should trouble shooting be necessary.
