Luis What type of USB modem is: Bus 001 Device 004: ID 07b8:f101 D-Link Corp. DSB-560 Modem [atlas] idVendor 0x07b8 D-Link Corp. idProduct 0xf101 DSB-560 Modem [atlas] ----- a simple dialout type or a broadband device? The PCIbus=00:11.6 00:11.6 Communication controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. AC'97 Modem could be either a Conexant type (read Conexant.txt) or a type supported by: slmodemd + snd_via82xx_modem But this problem: ---------------------- The PCI slot 00:11.6 of the modem card may be disabled early in a bootup process, but then enabled later. If modem drivers load but the modem is not responsive, read Bootup.txt about possible fixes. Send dmesg.txt along with ModemData.txt to discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx if help is needed. --------------------- blocked a complete analysis. There should have been a erd Modem line in: /proc/asound/pcm: 00-01: VIA 8237 : VIA 8237 : playback 1 : capture 1 00-00: VIA 8237 : VIA 8237 : playback 4 : capture 1 Try to get some more information under a Microsoft boot about the drivers used for the AC97 modem.
