Hello,
Attached is the ModemData.txt file created by ScanModem.gz. Would you
please help me with obtaining the appropriate driver and installation
instructions to get my modem to work for a dial-up connection access to the
internet.
Thank you,
Duane

Completed candidate modem analyses.
The base of the UDEV device file system is: /dev/.udev
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 4.1.2
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 4.1.2
Kernel-header resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic
If a driver compilation files with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example.
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include.
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
$ sudo apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
While some of the files may be on the install CD, others may have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
For Ubunut feisty, additional packages required were:
build-essential curl debhelper dpkg-dev g++ g++-4.1 gettext git-core gitk
html2text intltool-debian kernel-package kernel-wedge libc6-dev
libcurl3-gnutls libdigest-sha1-perl liberror-perl libstdc++6-4.1-dev
linux-libc-dev po-debconf rcs tcl8.4 tk8.4

In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:

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