Welcome to SUSE LINUX 10.1 (i586) - Kernel
Linux version 2.6.16.21-0.25-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.1.0 (SUSE Linux)) #1 Tue Sep 19 07:26:15 UTC 2006
scanModem update of: 2007_June_19
ALSAversion 1.0.11rc2
USB modem not detected by lsusb
Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:
PCI slot PCI ID SubsystemID Name
---------- --------- --------- --------------
02:05.0 14f1:2f00 14f1:2003 Communication controller: Conexant HSF 56k HSFi Modem
Modem interrupt assignment and sharing:
--- Bootup diagnositcs for card in PCI slot 02:05.0 ----
=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
=== Next deducing cogent software ===
For candidate modem in PCI bus: 02:05.0
Class 0780: 14f1:2f00 Communication controller: Conexant HSF 56k HSFi Modem
Primary PCI_id 14f1:2f00
Support type needed or chipset: hsfmodem
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.
Start at http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf for
eventually download of a hsfmodem-SomeVersion.zip package with
SomeVersion containing your kernel_version 2.6.16.21-0.25-default in the filename if possible.
These packages have compiled drivers. Otherwise download the generic
hsfmodem-Version.tar.gz package. Its usage will require compiling.
Read Conexant.txt
Writing Conexant.txt
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
The kernel was compiled with gcc version 4.1.0 and a compiler is not installed
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
gcc-4.1 kernel-source-2.6.16.21-0.25-default
Checking pppd properties:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root dialout 291796 Apr 23 2006 /usr/sbin/pppd
In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:

To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd

Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
