Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem 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. But for High Definition Audio cards hosting Conexant softmodems, and kernels before 2.6.16, a patched version must be used and is available at http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/hsfhda/ . Under Linux do: $ tar zxf hsf*.tar.gz $ cd hsfmodem-7.47.00.03full Look around: $ ls Install the package with: $ sudo make install $ sudo hsfconfig should complete the setup. See wvdial.txt for follow through information.
