--------------------------  System information ----------------------------
CPU=i686,  Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Linux version 2.6.15-23-386 (buildd@rothera) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)) #1 PREEMPT Tue May 23 13:49:40 UTC 2006
scanModem update of:  2007_March_15


USB modem not detected by lsusb

Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:

PCI slot    PCI ID        SubsystemID    Name
----------    ---------    ---------    --------------
0000:00:0a.0 8086:1040 8086:1000 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 536EP Data Fax Modem

Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:

--- Bootup diagnositcs for card in PCI slot 0000:00:0a.0 ----

=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
=== Next deducing cogent software ===

Completed candidate modem analyses.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev

The kernel was compiled with gcc version 4.0.3 and a compiler is not installed


If compiling a modem driver proves to be necessary, one of the two procedures must be followed.
If not yet on the Internet, put the Dapper install CD in the drive
Open a terminal and therein:
$ sudo apt-get install  gcc-4.0  make
Additionally the package linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386 must be downloaded. Go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and search for linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386
After downloading, it can be installed with:
$ sudo dpkg -i linux-header*.deb

Or alternatively if online through Ethernet do:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
will do all the necessary installations mentioned above.

In either installation case, set a symbolic link which will be expected later:
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-4.0  /usr/bin/gcc
After check with:
$ ls -l /usr/bin/gcc*
which should display:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2006-07-09 21:53 /usr/bin/gcc -> /usr/bin/gcc-4.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 93584 2006-04-20 18:22 /usr/bin/gcc-4.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 16245 2006-04-20 18:13 /usr/bin/gccbug-4.0

Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!

If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
   gcc-4.0 make linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386


Checking pppd properties:
   -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 257720 2006-02-23 11:33 /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
auth
crtscts
lock
hide-password
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


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