You need the Linuxant HSF driver for your Ubuntu 7.04 Linux distribution and kernel 2.6.20-15-generic. Attached instructions tell you how to start. You will find more on the Linuxant Web site quoted there.

Do use the following as the email Subject Line:

This will alert cogent experts, and  distinguish cases in the Archives.

with the CPU. But the software needed is specified in the Subsystem.

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.
From  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
download hsfmodem_VersionSpec_k2.6.20_15_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
with 2.6.20_15_generic equivalent to 2.6.20-15-generic, your kernel version.
Under Linux unpack with:
$ unzip hsfmodem*.zip
Then install with:
$ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb
Subsequently, the modem should be found with
$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Edit in your personal information with:
$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
and try dialing out with:
$ sudo wvdial.
See Testing.txt  for details.

Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2

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

If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:

If you do not already know, find out in your ModemData.txt if your modem is of type HSF or of type HCF.
 In the following, HxF stands for the one to be used.
Note down your distribution, your processor, and your kernel (shown in the System Information section of ModemData.txt).
-Go to http://www.linuxant.com/drivers
-Find the HxF menu in the left part of the screen.
-Read README.
-Read INSTALLATION.
-Click DOWNLOAD.
-Accept conditions.
-Find text: "You can download HxF modem packages from the driver
            download page." and click on that link.
-I very strongly recommend NOT TO LET YOURSELF BE ATTRACTED BY THE AUTOMATIC INSTALLER cnxtinstall.run. Just think: you need a connection to be able to use it, and this is what you do not have yet. Use the direct download page.
Its address is http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads.php
Using it will not save you any time, on the contrary, because you will not know
what to look for and do with it.
-Since you have noted your distribution, your processor, and your kernel (shown in the System Information section of ModemData.txt), identify the
 matching file.
-Download the matching file.
-Read again and, if you read this text under Windows, print the installation
 instructions matching the kind of driver file which you downloaded.
-If downloaded elsewhere (Windows on same computer or using an other computer),
 copy the downloaded file to your Linux working space.
-Now, under Linux, just follow the Linuxant installation instructions.

 NOTE:  the space on a floppy disk is sufficient for the driver file. This
is the simplest way to download under Windows on the same computer or to download on an other computer.
