Dear Sirs,
I am writing you as my modem doesn't work. My laptop is an amd64 machine
but I am running i386 operating system on it (debian/lenny). I HAD alsa
version 1.0.14, and my modem worked then with the debian conexent
hsfmodem package. I THEN upgraded to alsa 1.0.15 from source (I did not
use the package manager as 1.0.15 was not available as a deb at the
time). Then my modem no longer worked, though my audio worked better.
I re-installed the newest hsfmodem package. Then my audio didn't work
and the modem didn't work and the speakers made a noise when I pressed
certian keys on the keyboard, most notably the tab key. Some output from
dmesg follows the rest of this email.
Is there a simple fix for my problem? Thanks in advance,
-Dave Liebman

this is what dmesg | grep snd shows when both alsa 1.0.15 and the
hsfmodem package are installed.
