CPU=i686,
Welcome to
Linux version 2.4.33.3 (root@tree) (gcc version 3.4.6) #1 Fri Sep 1 01:48:52 CDT 2006
scanModem update of: 2007-20-07
The modem symbolic link is /dev/modem -> ./ttySL0
Blacklisted modem driver lines in /etc/modprobe* files are:
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:blacklist snd-atiixp-modem
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:blacklist snd-via82xx-modem
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist:blacklist snd-intel8x0m
The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) packages providing audio support on your System,
also includes drivers for some modems. High Definition Audio (HDA) cards can themselves host
a softmodem chipset, with both audio+modem supported by a snd-hda-intel driver.
The ALSA diagnostics are written during bootup to /proc/asound/ folders.
Modem not detected though HDA card diagnostics, though not excluding
a possible Conexant modem chip impervious to ALSA diagnostics.
Proceeding through alternative possibilties.
Summary card and chipset information is in:
/proc/asound/cards:
0 [I82801DBICH4 ]: ICH4 - Intel 82801DB-ICH4
Intel 82801DB-ICH4 with AD1981B at 0xc0000c00, irq 11
/proc/asound/pcm:
00-04: Intel ICH - IEC958 : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - IEC958 : playback 1
00-03: Intel ICH - ADC2 : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - ADC2 : capture 1
00-02: Intel ICH - MIC2 ADC : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - MIC2 ADC : capture 1
00-01: Intel ICH - MIC ADC : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 - MIC ADC : capture 1
00-00: Intel ICH : Intel 82801DB-ICH4 : playback 1 : capture 1
A copy of /proc/asound had been copied to Modem/ALSAroot.tgz
USB modem not detected by lsusb
For candidate card, firmware information and bootup diagnostics are:

=== Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===

The NotDetermined is not supported by this kernel.
There is candidate modem software.
Completed candidate modem analyses.
A UDEV device file system is not active.
Versions adequately match for the compiler installed: 3.4.6
and the compiler used in kernel assembly: 3.4.6
linux-headers-2.4.33.3 resources needed for compiling are not manifestly ready!
If compiling is necessary packages must be installed, providing:
kernel-source-2.4.33.3
If a driver compilation fails, with message including some lack of some FileName.h (stdio.h for example), then
Some additional kernel-header files need installation to /usr/include. The minimal additional packages are libc6-dev
and any of its dependents, under Ubuntu linux-libc-dev
If an alternate ethernet connection is available,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get -s install linux-kernel-devel
will install needed pacakage
For Debian/Ubuntu related distributions, run the following command to display the needed package list:
Otherwise packages have to be found through http://packages.ubuntu.com
Once downloaded and transferred into a Linux partition,
they can be installed alltogether with:
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Checking pppd properties:

In case of an "error 17" "serial loopback" problem, see:
http://phep2.technion.ac.il/linmodems/archive-sixth/msg02637.html
To enable dialout without Root permission do:
$ su - root (not for Ubuntu)
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
Checking settings of: /etc/ppp/options

In case of a message like:
Warning: Could not modify /etc/ppp/pap-secrets: Permission denied
see http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/bigarch/archive-sixth/msg04656.html
Read Modem/YourSystem.txt concerning other COMM channels: eth0
Which can interfere with Browser naviagation.
Don't worry about the following, it is for the experts
should trouble shooting be necessary.
