In windows my modem is identified as an Agere AC'97 Modem.
I don't know which driver to use in Linux or how to set it up. I am
attaching the ModemData.txt file produced by the scanModem utility.
Thank you for your help

Conexant
The Subsystem PCI id does not itself identify the modem Codec.

Checking through information gathered from LinModem ARCHIVES
The 8086:266d modems may be supported by hsfmodem OR slmodem-2.9.9c ,but not both
Modem codec information on Subsystem 103c:0934 is not in the records.
There are the following routes toward support:
Follow instructions in Modem/SoftModem.txt for identifying the modem under a Microsoft boot.
Test the effectiveness of the hsfmodem package from http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/index.php.
The debian Linux includes sl-modem packages with Smartlink drivers
Install the kernel-headers-2.6.20-16-generic.deb
If necessary, set a symbolic link needed for slmodem compiling:
# ln -s /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.20-16-generic /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/build
as described in Modem/DriverCompiling.txt
Then install the two sl-modem/slmodem packages and follow their directions.
Thereafter the above slamr diagnositic can be run.
Information on several modem chipset providers is provided below,
because ambiguities remain on the correct choice of supporting software.

Vendor=8086 is Intel, Inc. producing HaM and 536ep host controller free (HCF) modems, 537 soft modem
and AC97 and MC97 controllers managing a varierty of non-Intel soft modem Subsystems.
These subSystems often have PCI_IDs assigned by the modem assembler, rather than the chip provider.
Download available drivers through: http://developer.intel.com/design/modems/support/drivers.htm with Intel-537 types at:
