Dear all, 
there exist an open source driver for Conexant softmodem, see 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=180632
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/Conexant

Of course this driver is for experts only at the moment; but it's worth to be 
cited, and someone could improve it in case that he is aware that this driver 
exist and the work has already began.

This driver should be cited on the web pages about linmodems, and the 
scanModem should cite in a better way: although the driver is cited in the 
file Modem/Conexant.txt produced by scanModem, the file Modem/ModemData.txt 
says:

" 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."

which is misleading.

Best regards,
Marco Costantini
