David, 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.
