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
--------- ------------- ----------- -----------------------------
0480 serial drivers Venus controller chipset 1673JV7
0440-045d martian Mars/Apollo DSP (digital signal processing) chipsets
0462 none 56K.V90/ADSL Wildwire
048(c,d,f) none SV2P soft modem
0600 none soft modem, very few in the field.
062(0-3) none SV92PP,Pinball soft modem, in some HP desktop PCs
