CPU=i686, Debian GNU/Linux 4.0
Linux version 2.6.19 (root@Knoppix) (gcc version 4.1.2 20061028 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-19)) #7 SMP PREEMPT Sun Dec 17 22:01:07 CET 2006
scanModem update of: 2007_April_23

Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:

=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===

For candidate modem in PCI bus: 01:07.0
Class 0703: 1057:3052 Modem: Motorola Unknown device 3052
Primary PCI_id 1057:3052
Support type needed or chipset: Motorola
Vendor=1057 is Motorola with some service provided through
vendor=11d4 Analog Devices Inc. Drivers are available for VERY FEW 2.4.n kernels
http://www.motorola.com/softmodem/driver.htm
and for 2.6.n only a Fedora 2.6.9-1.667 at
http://www.linux-xp-brasil.com.br/sm56-06.09.05-1-fc3-2.6.9-1.667.i686.rpm
A driver is NOT available for this kernel 2.6.19.
Motorola seems to be only providing source code to some equipment mnaufacturers,
who may provide particular compiled Linux drivers with their products.
See details in Motorola.txt

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.19
Compressed files at: /usr/src/linux-2.6.19.tar.bz2 /usr/src/loop-aes.tar.bz2 /usr/src/madwifi.tar.bz2 /usr/src/ndiswrapper-source.tar.bz2 /usr/src/patch-2.6.19.1.bz2 /usr/src/rtai-source.tar.bz2
For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 may be needed to support driver compiling
