Chiedo cortesemente informazioni in merito l driver da utilizzare per la connessione a internet con la mia versione di UBUNTU 7.04.

Allego a questo proposito il file ModemData.txt.

Ringrazio per la disponibilità.
Distinti saluti.

--------------------------  System information ----------------------------
CPU=i686,  
Linux version 2.6.20-15-generic (root@palmer) (gcc version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)) #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007
 scanModem update of:  2007-12-07


 There are no blacklisted modem drivers in /etc/modprobe*  files 

 Potentially useful modem drivers now loaded are:
 snd_atiixp_modem


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 [IXP            ]: ATIIXP - ATI IXP
                      ATI IXP rev 1 with unknown codec at 0xb0003400, irq 17
 1 [Modem          ]: ATIIXP-MODEM - ATI IXP Modem
                      ATI IXP Modem rev 1 at 0xb0003800, irq 17

/proc/asound/pcm:
01-00: ATI IXP MC97 : ATI IXP MC97 : playback 1 : capture 1
00-00: ATI IXP AC97 : ATI IXP AC97 : 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:

 PCI slot	PCI ID		SubsystemID	Name
 ----------	---------	---------	--------------
 00:14.6	1002:4378	103c:3085	Modem: ATI Technologies Inc ATI SB400 - AC'97 Modem Controller 

 Modem interrupt assignment and sharing: 
 17:        636   IO-APIC-fasteoi   ATI IXP Modem, ATI IXP
 --- Bootup diagnostics for card in PCI slot 00:14.6 ----
[   21.065592] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:14.6[B] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17

[   45.757662] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:14.6[B] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17

 The PCI slot 00:14.6 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.
 

 === Finished modem firmware and bootup diagnostics section. ===
 === Next deducing cogent software ===


There is candidate modem software.

 For candidate modem in PCI bus:  00:14.6
   Class 0703: 1002:4378 Modem: ATI Technologies Inc ATI SB400 - AC'97 Modem Controller
      Primary PCI_id  1002:4378
    Subsystem PCI_id  103c:3085 
    Softmodem codec or chipset from diagnostics: CXT30, a Conexant type,
                               from    Archives: CXT, a Conexant type,
      CXT is  a generic for all CXTnumbers, with  Linuxant hsfmodem software support.                  

 Lacking a dsp (digital signal processing) chip, the modem is a software 
 intensive or "softmodem" type. Its primary controller manages the traffic 
 with the CPU. But the software needed is specified in the Subsystem.
 -----------------------------------------
Support type needed or chipset:	hsfmodem


For owners of a Dell PCs with Conexant HSF modems, a driver source package with full speed enabled is available, but requires driver compiling. Read Conexant.txt

 The hsfmodem package serves a great variety of Conexant chipset modems. 
 From  http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/full/downloads-ubuntu-x86.php
 download hsfmodem_VersionSpec_k2.6.20_15_generic_ubuntu_i386.deb.zip 
                           with 2.6.20_15_generic equivalent to 2.6.20-15-generic, your kernel version.
 Under Linux unpack with:
 $ unzip hsfmodem*.zip
 Then install with:
 $ sudo dpkg -i hsfmodem*.deb
 Subsequently, the modem should be found with
 $ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
 Edit in your personal information with:
 $ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
 and try dialing out with:
 $ sudo wvdial.
 See Testing.txt  for details.

Writing Conexant.txt


 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/2.6.20-15-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 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:
	-rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 269224 2007-04-05 05:41 /usr/sbin/pppd

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)
        sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd
or under Ubuntu related Linuxes
	sudo chmod a+x /usr/sbin/pppd

Checking settings of:	/etc/ppp/options
asyncmap 0
noauth
crtscts
lock
hide-password
modem
proxyarp
lcp-echo-interval 30
lcp-echo-failure 4
noipx

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.
