 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.

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:

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. 
 Start at  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf for
 eventually download of a hsfmodem-SomeVersion.zip  package with
 SomeVersion containing your kernel_version 2.6.17-5mdv  in the filename if possible. 
 These packages have compiled drivers. Otherwise download the generic 
 hsfmodem-Version.tar.gz  package. Its usage will require compiling.

 Read Conexant.txt

Writing Conexant.txt


 Completed candidate modem analyses.

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

 Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.1
             and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.1

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

 If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
	 kernel-source-2.6.17-5mdv

Checking settings of:	/etc/ppp/options


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
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

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

 Checking for modem support lines:
