Joe,
I do not understand what you ask (excuse me but English is not my native
language and I cannot find what "licked this thing" may mean for you).
Help about the kernel sources?
In directory Modem generated by scanModem (the one where you found
ModemData.txt) there is a file DriverCompiling.txt .
It says what you have to do.

could not find any kernel sources in /usr/src
you have either not installed your kernel sources
or your kernel sources are installed in another place than
/usr/src/
please enter your correct kernel source tree, e.g. /usr/src/linux:
I'm still working on it.

For candidate modem in PCI bus: 0000:00:0f.0
Class 0780: 125d:2898 Communication controller: ESS Technology ES2898 Modem
Primary PCI_id 125d:2898
Support type needed or chipset: ESS.com
Vendor=125d is ESS Technologies, http://www.esstech.com/
The PCI id 125d:2898 modems are Supported under 2.6.n kernels.
The driver resources for 125d:2898 modems should be downloaded
from http://tx.technion.ac.il/~raindel/ess_2.6-v0.3.tar.gz , benefitting
from an update by Jeff Trull. There are brief instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185079
Under Linux, unpack with:
$ tar zxf ess_2.6-v0.2.tar.gz
Move into the folder wit:
$ cd ess_2.6-v0.2
Browse the files therein and run as Root the:
$ sudo ./setup
The setup program creates a port:
$ ls -l /dev/ttyS_ESS0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 62, 64 2006-09-23 23:08 /dev/ttyS_ESS0
and a symbolic link to it:
/dev/modem --> /dev/ttyS_ESS0
Specify either /dev/modem or /dev/ttyS_ESS0 as the modem port for dialer utilities.
A file is installed:
/etc/udev/rules.d/ess.rules , with line:
"KERNEL=\"ttyS_ESS0\", SYMLINK=\"modem\""
which supports automated port creation during driver loading.
If the drivers do not autoload during bootup, they can be loaded by:
$ sudo modprobe esscom
after which the driver interdependencies can be displayed by:
$ lsmod | grep esscom
esscom 16580 0
esscom_hw 421328 1 esscom
linmodems 345678 2 esscom esscom_hw
The modem should be found by:
$ sudo wvdialconf wvtest
See wvdial.txt and Testing.txt for follow through details.

The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.0.3
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.0.3
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
