ALSAversion 1.0.10
USB modem not detected by lsusb
Modem or host audio card candidates have firmware information:

--- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 0000:02:08.0 ----
=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
=== Next deducing cogent software ===
For candidate modem in PCI bus: 0000:02:08.0
Class 0780: 14f1:1034 Communication controller: Conexant HCF 56k Data/Fax/Voice Modem
Primary PCI_id 14f1:1034
Support type needed or chipset: hcflinmodem
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.
Read Conexant.txt
Writing Conexant.txt
Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.0.3
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.0.3
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.6.15-27-desktop
For Debian and some related distributions, a package kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 may be needed to support driver compiling
