Modemdata.txt attached. I am using Ubuntu 7.04 on an IBM T21 laptop. The
modem worked OK under Windows 2000 but now I get 'modem not found'.
I hope you can help me,
thanks

Linux version 2.6.20-16-generic (root@terranova) (gcc version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)) #2 SMP Sun Sep 23 19:50:39 UTC 2007

There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe* files
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) spackage providing audio support
on your System, also includes drivers for some modems. For modems using the
snd-hda-intel audio+modem driver, upgrades to a new ALSA version are sometimes
necessary to achieve function. See for example:
http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-seventh/msg02144.html
Copying ALSA diagnostics to Modem/ALSAcolin.tgz
ALSAversion = 1.0.13

Modem or candidate host audio card have firmware information and diagnostics:

There is candidate modem software.
For candidate modem in PCI bus: 00:03.1
Class 0700: 115d:000c Serial controller: Xircom Mini-PCI V.90 56k Modem
Primary PCI_id 115d:000c
Support type needed or chipset: Agere.DSP
The modem has a Lucent/Agere/LSI Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal processing) chipset.
Support packages for 2.6.n kernels are at:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/
See AgereDSP.txt for Details.
DSP=1
Vendor 115d is XIRCOM, which was purchased by Intel
The following devices have Lucent/AgereSystems DSP chipsets supported by the
Martian variant of the AgereSystems ltmodem software.
XIRCOM 0x115d 0x0000-0x000F
XIRCOM 0x115d 0x0440-0x045c
XIRCOM 0x115d 0x0010-0x03ff
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
Minimal compiling resources appear complete:
make utility - /usr/bin/make
Compiler version 4.1
linuc_headers base folder /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/build
However some compilations and executable functions may need additional files,
in the FileNames.h (so called kernel "h"eaders) collection installed in /usr/include/ .
For martian_modem, additional required packages are libc6-dev (and for Debian/Ubuntu, linux-libc-dev). The also required headers of package libc6 are commonly installed by default.
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 Ubuntu Feisty, additional packages required were:
libc6-dev linux-libc-dev
available through http://packages.ubuntu.com/ , if not on the install CD.
Such packages may have different names for other Linux distributions.
Try installing just the libc6-dev, then test the compile again.
