It is the CHIPSET, and Not the modem BrandName which is informative for
Linux support
The chipset types that are fully supported under Linux, without
proprietary drivers,
have the more expersive controller chipsets. These include the 3COM,Inc
3CXM556 and
AgereSystems FM560LK chipsets. Do a WWW search to find them.
USB modems will not be detected through the acm.o driver with
port /dev/ttyACM0
UNTIL proper USB support is installed.
See http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/x332.html,
Linux_kernel_source/Documentation/usb/acm.txt, and
http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/usbcdc11.pdf (page 15)
Among the USB modems with proprietary interfaces, there is support for
Conexant HSF modems are supported by the hsfmodem package at
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers
HSF USB with Vendor:Product IDs - 0572:1300 0572:1301 0572:1302
0572:1303 08E3:0111
with updates at
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/index.php
HCF Vendor ID: 0572 Product ID: 1290 (Cadmus2 HCF, Conexant) is
supported,
but NOT the Cadmus I types:

HCF USB Vendor ID: 05AC Product ID: 8202 (Cadmus2 HCF, for
Apple/Mac and not PCs)
SmartUSB56 (ST7554) based modems with ID: 0483:7554
The SWEEX USB modem has the ST7554 chipset
Drivers are at
http://www.smlink.com/main/index1.php?ln=en&main_id=40
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-fourth/msg00176.html is an
installation report.
To write out Smartlink information, use the proxy entry
./scanModem test 1131:3400
PCMCIA card modems can serve if your laptops modem is not supported
under Linux.
http://freewebhosting.hostdepartment.com/g/gromitkc/pcmcia_list.html
The 3COM,Inc 3CXM556 and AgereSystems FM560LK chip modems use Open
Source serial-cs.o drivers.
For modems not recognized by scanModem, chipset information may be
obtained under Microsoft Windows through:
1) Start > Settings > Control Panel > Classical View (for WinXP) >
Modem
or alternatively under Linux
# cat /proc/asound/mc97*
Try to identify the modem setup file, with name perhaps MODEM.INF
2) Open a COMM console, and send ATI commands to the modem (ATI, ATI1,
ATI2, etc)
which may elicit chipset and driver information. Here is an example
ATI3 - Agere SoftModem Version 2.1.22
ATI5 - 2.1.22, AMR Intel MB, AC97 ID:SIL REV:0x27
successfully identifying an Agere SoftModem chipset, both by name and
through
the:softmodem SIL ID: AC97 ID:SIL REV:0x27
SUPPORT SUMMARY - as of 2007_March_15
-------------------------------------
Controller chipsets are used in the most expensive modems and are
supported.
They utilize the same serial drivers included with kernel+module
installations,
and most commonly one of the ports /dev/ttyS0 thru 3.
Such chipsets are produced by 3Com, AgereSystems (the Venus chipset),
Topic Semiconductor Corp., and others. But the same companies may
produce unsupported WinModems. Do not depend on the Brand Name.
Look for an explicit statement of Linux support
AVOID the following modem chipsets:
ESS - no formal support since 2.2.2 kernels, though there are
kluges:
http://andywettstein.home.comcast.net/ess/
http://tx.technion.ac.il/~raindel/
3Com/US Robotics winmodems - never supported under Linux
SmartLink - newer chipsets are supported: http://www.smlink.com
ftp://ftp.smlink.com/linux/unsupported/
Moreover, the slmodem-2.9.10 drivers will support Many but not all
modem Ssubsystems
that serve under AC97/MC97 controllers.
Conexant - all modems supported with drivers at:
http://www.linuxant.com
Testcode for slow 14,400 mH support is free, BUT
there is a one time charge for the full speed support.
Intel Inc. -
http://developer.intel.com/design/modems/support/drivers.htm
For early releases check at:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/resources.html
The HaM modem is supported, but code is no longer being updated;
there will likely be failures under emerging 2.6 kernels.
The 536EP and five Intel537 modem chipset variants are actively
supported.
Lucent /AgereSystems
The Venus chipset modem uses the Linux seraik drivers and is thus
supported.
Modems with digital signal processing (DSP) chipsets are supported:
http:/ltmodem.heby.de
For AC97/MC97 soft modems. Initiate software access through code
sponsor IBM:
http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-52698
Coding of support for has Not yet begun PCI soft modems with PCI_IDs
11c1:048?
Motorola support is at:
http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/sm56_download.htm
through 2.4.22 kernels.
PCTel modem business has been sold to Conexant
Driver compiler resources are at: http://pctelcompdb.sourceforge.net/
However, the pre-compiled binary component is yet to be assembled
with the gcc 3.nn used in newer Linux releases,
so forced (-f) insertions may be necessary:
insmod -f pctel
Some of the HSP soft modems are supported by the SmartLink
slmodem-2.9.10 drivers.
Broadcom modems in Dell laptops and PCs - can be made to function under
2.4 kernels, but code has not been updated recently.
--------- end chipset section ----------------------
SUPPORT under the current 2.6.nn kernels.
The more expensive Controller chipset modems are functioning.
SmartLink slmodem-2.9.9 drivers are functioning.
Conexant has 2.6.n support
The Lucent/Agere digital signal processing (DSP) chipsets do have
informal service into 2.6.n kernels and an AgereSystems release is
soon expected.
Intel, Agere Systems and Linuxant are firmly expected to continue
support into 2.6.nn,
though the Intel HaM software will not be updated to 2.6.n service
------------------------------------
Preparing winmodem drivers will generally require compiling.
If you are not familar with this process DEFINITELY read carefully
the Modem/DriverCompiling.txt
