USB modem not detected by lsusb

Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:

 PCI slot	PCI ID		SubsystemID	Name
 ----------	---------	---------	--------------
 00:1f.6	8086:2446	104d:8111	Modem: Intel Corporation 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Modem

 The PCI slot 00:1f.6 of the modem card may be disabled early in 
 a bootup process,  but then enabled later. If modem drivers load 
 but the  modem is not responsive, read Bootup.txt about possible fixes.
 Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
 if help is needed.
 

 === Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===

The audio card is not a modem hosting type.

    Softmodem codec or Vendor from diagnostics: CXT21, a Conexant type,
                              from    Archives: 
      CXT is  a generic for all CXTnumbers, with  Linuxant hsfmodem software support.                  

 This is a NEW softmodem case!  Please send the output ModemData.txt 
 to DISCUSS@xxxxxxxxxxxxx , even if further assistance is not needed.
 It will enrich the Archive and help others!
 -------------------------------------------
 Lacking a dsp (digital signal processing) chip, the modem is a software 
 intensive or "softmodem" type. Its primary controller manages the traffic 
 with the CPU. But the software needed is specified in the Subsystem.
 -----------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset:	hsfmodem


The diagnostic outputs for this softmodem section have their raw information in
folders and text files under /proc/asound/ which you can browse. The information
is from files:
	/proc/asound/pcm
-------------------------------
00-01: Intel ICH - MIC ADC : Intel 82801BA-ICH2 - MIC ADC : capture 1
00-00: Intel ICH : Intel 82801BA-ICH2 : playback 1 : capture 1
01-00: Intel ICH - Modem : Intel ICH Modem - Modem : playback 1 : capture 1

	/proc/asound/modules
-------------------------------
 0 snd_intel8x0
 1 snd_intel8x0m
	/proc/asound/card1/codec97#0/mc97#1-1+regs
-------------------------------
0:7c = 4358  and  0:7e = 5421
which were translated from hexadecimal code into:  CXT21

	/proc/asound/card1/codec97#0/mc97#1-1
-------------------------------
Extended modem ID: codec=1 CID1 LIN1

and from the command:
	aplay -l | grep -i modem
card 1: Modem [Intel ICH Modem], device 0: Intel ICH - Modem [Intel ICH Modem - Modem]

Writing Intel.txt

 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_11_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip 
                           with 2.6.17_11_generic equivalent to 2.6.17-11-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

Writing Conexant.txt


 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: 4.1.2


 
 Compiling resources appear complete:
   make utility - /usr/bin/make
   Compiler version 4.1
   kernel_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/build


Checking pppd properties:
	-rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 260920 2006-07-10 15:13 /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)
        sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
	sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd

Checking settings of:	/etc/ppp/options
asyncmap 0

crtscts
lock

modem
proxyarp
lcp-echo-interval 30
lcp-echo-failure 4
noipx

In case of a message like:
   Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0 eth1 vmnet1 vmnet8
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

 Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
 should trouble shooting be necessary.
