 Conexant chipset modems section  
 --------------------------------

 Vendors 14f1 is Conexant, inheritor of the former vendor 127a Rockwell modem 
 technology.  There are also Conexant chipsets in some modems from vendors:
 	158b Allied Data Tech., 
 	1024 Zenith 
 	141a Apache Micro 
 	148d Digicom Systems.

For owners of Dell computers, 
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg01830.html  explains how to download resources and to an install.

But the orginal source of the Linux code packages for 
 Conexant chipset modems is  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers.  The HCF chipset modems have a dsp 
 (digital signal processing) chip,  while the HSF lack a  dsp and 
 this function is performed by the CPU  under software direction.
 $patch

For a crash issue with the 2.6.16 kernel, please make sure that your
kernel was not compiled with the CONFIG_4KSTACKS option is not set as
the HSF modem driver is known to requires more than 4K of stacks in a
few cases.  The are several alternate kernels supporting hsfmodem 
available at http://www.linuxant.com.  Look for their Link/URL on the
page with your needed hsfmodem package.

 To get software, go to http://www.linuxant.com/drivers
-Find the HCF or HSF menu in the left part of the screen.
-Read README.
-Read INSTALLATION.
-Click DOWNLOAD.
-Accept conditions.
-Find text: "You can download HCF (or HSF) modem packages from the driver
            download page." and click there.
-Look for your distribution, your processor, and your kernel on"
http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
-Download the matching file:
	hsfmodem_7.60.00.09full_k2.6.20_16_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip
-Read again and, if you do this under Windows, print the installation
 instructions matching the kind of driver file which you downloaded.
-Now just follow these instructions.

http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/downloads-patches.php has patches
    that may be necessary for recent kernels. 

 A detailed software installation example is provided at:
   http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/archive-fourth/msg00350.html

 After loading of HSF drivers, there will be selective displayed by command: 
 #  /sbin/lsmod | grep hsf
 with an output like:
-----------
Module                  Size  Used by    Tainted: P
hsfich                119116   0  (autoclean)
hsfserial              26388   0  (autoclean)
hsfengine            1126348   0  (autoclean) [hsfserial]
hsfosspec              35328   0  (autoclean) [hsfich hsfserial hsfengine]
---------
 plus many others not modem related.
 While drivers are pre-compiled for some Linux distributions,
 the installation of the HCF/HSF packages DOES in general require kernel-source/ 
 preparation, as described in Modem/DriverCompiling.txt.

 There is good support from Linuxant.com, but first gather data. 
 In a terminal
 # su - root or prefix commands with sudo for Ubuntu related distributions.
    hsfconfig --dumpdiag
 If this command crashes your machine, please try instead:
    hsfconfig --dumpdiag --noprobe
 Send the hsfdiag.txt located in the folder /tmp/ 
 to MODEM.SUPPORT@xxxxxxxxxxxx

 There is a conflict between modules snd-intel8x0m and  hsfmc97ich.
 The snd-intel8x0m Must be loaded first or the system may hang upon hsfmc97ich insertion.
