Ok, sorry, must have missed your request to post that somehow. :SModemData.txt: Only plain text email is forwarded by the DISCUSS@xxxxxxxxxxxxx List Server.

Read Conexant.txt for details. and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow through guidance. Driver speedis 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 2.6.21-gentoo-r2 in thefilename if possible. These packages have compiled drivers. Otherwise download the generic hsfmodem-Version.tar.gz package. Its usage will require compiling.
