Colin,

For 115d:000c Serial controller: Xircom Mini-PCI V.90 56k Modem

 The modem has a Lucent/Agere/LSI Mars or Apollo DSP (digital signal
processing) chipset.  See AgereDSP.txt for Details

 Get the driver code package martian-full-20071011.tar.gz  from
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/packages/ltmodem/kernel-2.6/martian/

Some additional kernel-headers will be needed.
If you have an alternate ethernet CONNECT it will be simplest to
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get 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, minimal additional packages required are:
 libc6-dev linux-libc-dev
available through http://packages.ubuntu.com/ , if not on the install CD.
When downloaded into a Linux partition, both can be installed with:
$ sudo dpkg -i lib*.deb

Then you can use the martian-full-20071011.tar.gz
$ tar xzf mar*.tar.gz
which will unpack the folder. Just follow the directions therein.

Write back if you need further help
