Your modem is a Conexant HSF which will work with the Linuxant HSF
driver matching your distribution Ubuntu 6.06 and kernel 2.6.15-28-386
More details are attached.
The reason why you got this port /dev/ttySL0 is probably (I am not an
Ubuntu-ist) that Ubuntu creates it by default even when there is no such
modem, or that it misidentified your modem.

Hi there,
need you help folks, I've installed GNOME PPP, in this
program's setup the modem is detected as
Device:/dev/ttySL0 however, when I dial, the log
shows:

file by hand!"

...even if I check "ignore carrier".
So I've installed and run scanModem but I don't know
what to do next. I'm attaching the ModemData.txt as
suggested.
Thank you very much!

Freeware support may be available for a few Conexant chipset modems
with support confirmed only for the PCI_id chipset 14f1:2f00.
See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=180632
Otherwise 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_k2.6.15_28_386_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
with 2.6.15_28_386 equivalent to 2.6.15-28-386, 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.

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.
