I have just installed Linux for the first time.
My modem, a winmodem, has not been recognised by the Linux installation program. I have used scan modem and this is my ModemData.txt and now how can I install this modem?

CPU=i686, Fedora Core release 4 (Stentz)
Kernel
Linux version 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp (bhcompile@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 4.0.0 20050525 (Red Hat 4.0.0-9)) #1 SMP Thu Jun 2 23:08:39 EDT 2005
scanModem update of: 2007_March_15
The modem symbolic link is /dev/modem -> /dev/ttyLTM0
USB modem not detected.
Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:

Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:
--- Bootup diagnositcs for card in PCI slot 02:0a.0 ----
=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
=== Next deducing cogent software ===
===================================
The modem interrupt (IRQ) is 255 . IRQs of 0 or 255 are not functional!!
The CPU cannot control the modem until this situation is corrected!!
Possible corrections are:
1) Within the boot up BIOS, change from a Windows to a non-PNP/Other Operating System type.
Instructions for accessing BIOS are at:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/resources.html within: Additional Resourcces.
2a) Add an option "pci=routeirq" to the kernel boot up line.
Here is an example paragraph from /boot/grub/menu.lst :
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-26-686
root (hd0,6)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-26-686 root=/dev/hda7 ro pci=routeirq
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-26-686
savedefault
2b) Same as above, but use "pollirq" instead of "pci=routeirq".
3) Within some BIOS setups, IRQ assignments can be changed.
4) On non-laptop systems, moving the modem card to another slot has helped.
5) Sometimes upgrading the kernel changes IRQ assignment.

For candidate modem in PCI bus: 02:0a.0
Class 0780: 11c1:048c Communication controller: Agere Systems
Primary PCI_id 11c1:048c
Support type needed or chipset: Agere.SV2P_no_driver_available
Vendor 11c1 is Lucent Technologies or subsidiary Agere Systems, Inc. Their Linux
code developer/maintainer is Soumyendu Sarkar. Support for a chipset and its
continued maintenance is only initiated at the request of a major chipset buyer,
or comparable sponsor. Several different modem chipset types are produced,
and two have support under Linux:
Device ID Support Name Comment

048(c,d,f) none SV2P soft modem
0600 none soft modem, very few in the field.
