Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:

 PCI slot	PCI ID		SubsystemID	Name
 ----------	---------	---------	--------------

 --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 02:01.0 ----

 === Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
 === Next deducing cogent software ===

 For candidate modem in PCI bus:  02:01.0
   Class 0780: 11c1:048c Communication controller: Agere Systems
      Primary PCI_id  11c1:048c
 Support type needed or chipset:	Agere.SV2P_potentially_supported
 


 Vendor 11c1 is Lucent Technologies with modem technology now under LSI Inc. 
Their Linux  code developer/maintainer is Soumyendu Sarkar. Support for a chipset and its 
 continued maintenance is only initiated at the request of a major chipset buyer,
 or comparable sponsor. Several different  modem chipset types  are produced: 
 with varying support under Linux.

AGRSM - At http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/ 
agrsm-alpha.tar.bz2 potentially provides support for PCI_id chipsets
   11c1:048c,  11c1:048f and 11c1:0620
in addition to prior support of Subsystems under Intel 8086:???? below
11C1:048C
11C1:048F
11C1:0620
8086:(2416 2426 7196 2486 24C6 24CD6 266D) are soft modem controllers, better
   supported through ALSA modem drivers and the Smartlink slmodemd helper.
   
There has only been one reported success for 11c1:048c, 11c1:048f and 11c1:0620. See:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg00849.html

Interaction with experts will likely be necessary to get any of these modems working.

 Completed candidate modem analyses.

 The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev.tdb

 Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 3.4.3
             and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 3.4.3


 
 Compiling resources appear complete:
   make utility - /usr/bin/make
   Compiler version 3.4
   kernel_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.9-5.EL/build


Checking pppd properties:
	-r-xr-xr-x  1 root root 251008 Nov  2  2004 /usr/sbin/pppd

In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:
    http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html

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

Checking settings of:	/etc/ppp/options
lock

In case of a message like:
   Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html

Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.

 Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
 should trouble shooting be necessary.

     Within /etc/udev/ files:

     Within /etc/modprobe.conf files:

     Within any ancient /etc/devfs files:
